That's not really accurate, because the binary could have been created by "cheating" (for example, the package may have missing build-dependencies but the uploaded packages were made in a chroot that had them installed). What you mean here, I suppose, is that a FTBFS is not RC when the failure only happens on architectures that were previously unsupported. Logically, since this was the initial upload, the list of "supported architetures" was initially empty. Thanks.
