That conclusion was too fast. Indeed readelf can read Build-Ids for
different architectures. The underlying problem here was that no
Build-Ids were inserted (and I still have no clue why). So the only
fault one could attribute to debhelper here is that the error message is
suboptimal. Maybe it could say something like "Warning: library without
Build-Id found" instead?
