When I invoke `dpkg-architecture` on Sarge/amd64, the output is
seemingly broken:
$ uname -a
Linux gamera.domain.mars 2.6.8-11-amd64-k8-smp #1 SMP Wed Jun 1 00:01:27 CEST 2$
$ dpkg-architecture
DEB_BUILD_ARCH=
DEB_BUILD_GNU_CPU=
DEB_BUILD_GNU_SYSTEM=
DEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE=
DEB_HOST_ARCH=
DEB_HOST_GNU_CPU=
DEB_HOST_GNU_SYSTEM=
DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE=
I can't reproduce that and since every second package uses
dpkg-architecture during build the buildd would have had tons of
failures during build with this.
I would suggest looking for the error somewhere else. Did you change
gcc or something?
Nope, not at all. The only thing slightly libc related is our
change in nsswitch.conf to use files ldap.
# COLUMNS=150 dpkg -l |grep 'libc6' | awk '{print $1" "$2" "$3}'
ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22
ii libc6-dev 2.3.2.ds1-22
This is the same output on all of the 3 extra machines I just ran
dpkg-architecture on .
However, I just tested this on some completely different
amd64/sarge boxes; some of which were just installed days ago, and
the error is still the same. All three systems I tested do not
assign values to the output of dpkg-architecture.

Well, at least it's good to know the correct output, so that I can
force it for building packages.
Is there anything else I can do to help discover why 4 (probably)
more of our systems, this doesn't work?
We don't do anything crazy with them at all. We pump them out
with an un-attended, debian-installer based (debconf/critical)
install.
The mirror we use is:
