Just to clarify, the version in etch is not going to be updated for
this anyway, that's Debian release policy.

It seems like a valid GNU triplet. Although for dpkg purposes the
-none- is unneeded.

Given other conversations, I take this is for Maemo. And my same
concerns apply, why do you need a new architecture? And do you realize
this would imply having two different dpkg db (there's no multiarch
support yet anyway)?

This is the completely wrong approach, I'd recommend you don't do that
in Maemo either.
