** Description changed:

  If you install a debootstrap of a foreign architecture (lets say armhf
  on amd64), when when pbuilder/cowbuilder goes to chroot, that fails, and
- then it deletes the whole damn thing.
+ then it deletes the whole thing.
  
  Instead it could detect that the architecture is foreign and copy
  /usr/bin/qemu-$WHATEVERISAPPROIATE-static to usr/bin/ of the target, and
  then do the chroot. in the case of armel and armhf, the binary is
  /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static
