You dont gain anything by this workaround as these kernels need to be 
installed in a fai nfsroot which has to be created on the target architecture 
(i386 here) anyway, as make-fai-nfsroot calls debootstrap which in turn 
executes all the packages postinst scripts, which will lead to the execution 
of binaries. There is no cross-debootstrap.

Therefore I will close this bug report. You might look up #101598 which is a 
similar wishlist bug, which has been closed.


regards,
        Holger
