While I could manually build this on powerpc, I will *not* manually build it for every upload, no matter how infrequent they are.

Have a look at the palo source, which solves this in two ways:

1) When on hppa, debian/rules clean builds hppa-specific stuff (and the source package is obviously always built on hppa because of this)

2) The package is Debian-native (ie: no diff.gz), so the above works easily, without having to uuencode stuff.

I suggest at least using the trick in (1), and if you choose to uuncode it in a diff.gz, or just tar it up in a Debian-native package, that's up to you.
