xmbmon fails to build from source on all non-x86 architectures as it 
attempts to #include <sys/io.h>. This has been the case for many years 
and is probably fine. However, QA stuff can run into this problem and 
documenting the FTBFS lowers the noise on the QA side. An alternative 
would be to forbid building on non-x86:

    Build-Depends: unsupported-architecture [!any-amd64 !any-i386]

I'm not sure that that's better than the status quo though. In any case, 
this report should not be worrying. It probably works fine on x86 and 
may not be useful elsewhere.
