OK, I have just seen this requirement.
Honestly, it looks a bit incomplete in the guidelines: to put headers into
arch-specific packages only to satisfy arch-specific tests, when the "library
should have tests which should be run on all architectures" condition can be
archived a better way. Also, there is no "install process may modify the
installed headers depending on the build architecture" situation.
Anyway, the package is APPROVED.
