Porting it is easy enough, but the buildd must have 800MB-1GB to build it.
That means arm* can't manage (due to the buildds having all <= 512MB). Ditto
m68k.

That sounds ideal! So when I make a new port I just upload a bootstrap
binary package of the old version and then a new upload of the source
package? -> causes the buildd to rebuild the new package without needing
changes to Packages-arch-specific?

If that's what you mean, that would be ideal!
