Hello, There some tools/project who help to rebuild source pacckages, a bit like gentoo.
Apt-build http://julien.danjou.info/article-apt-build.html Debian From Scratch (unlike LFS they use source packages and not *.tar.gz) http://people.debian.org/~jgoerzen/dfs/html/booting.html About naming policy for cpus arch, I think like others that's not needed yet in debian, but can be adopt in emdebian, for few packages, to host packages which make sense to be build with "cpu depending compilation". I think mostly about multimedia applications and as Pjotr proposed libc & friends. I understand libc & friends as kernel+uclibc(+uclibc++)+busybox and probably building toolchains.

That's can be usefull for others project like the i386-uclibc team, AGNULA/uDeMuDi and probably some companies.
