Not really. There is no particular policy that forces you to fix any
packages on architectures which you are not interested in.

If, by any chance, there are packages which don't build on any ports
architecture, it will be the Debian Ports team which will provide
a patch to fix the issue. Usually, we will actually send the patch
directly upstream.

So, enabling gccgo builds for the rest of us wouldn't mean any extra
work for you.
