People can debug it independent of the list of architectures listed in
the Architecture: header.  The list of architectures is a statement
from me as the maintainer on which architectures I belive is working,
and I will only add archs that are reported to work.  I do not want
bug reports claiming dmidecode do not work on hurd, before anyone have
actually ported it to hurd. :)

So, if you want hurd added to the Architecture: header, submit a
tested patch making it work on hurd. :) Preferably it should be sent
upstream as well.

No idea.  Perhaps the upstream author know? :)

Happy hacking,
