I usually try to keep on top of this and have things fixed before other people bump into them - we have lots of users on other distros too, and people who roll their own bleeding edge kernels, so things usually don't get missed for long. It is easy to get a bit complacent when lk goes for a while without breaking any of the interfaces we use again though :) In this case it's not an issue of the new kernel though, the broken arch detection you hit dates back to long before you could build for the amd64 flavour on i386 -- apparently you're just the lucky first to try it, it would have broken like this since the very first distro package or before. It reported the host arch, not what the build was targetted for. Fix for that should be uploaded shortly. And I've confirmed the current package does build correctly with the 3.1+41 kernel, it's just the cross targetted builds that were broken.
