        Hey there

 The dpkg-dev tools allow cross-building packages with
 dpkg-buildpackage -a<arch> (this works with debuild too).  This will
 basically call the usual clean, build, binary, binary-arch etc. targets
 in rules after setting up dpkg-architecture vars in the env.  I wish
 debclean would have an -a flag as well, as to allow rules to clean for
 the correct architecture.  Ideally, dpkg-buildpackage would have a
 clean-only flag and we wouldn't need duplicating this in debclean.

   Thanks,
