I answered too quickly. There are actually two other options.

The first one is to request give backs. It seems that it's what you have
done (or someone else) for armhf, since the package is currently
building there again.

The other option that I'm pursuing is to build the package on the armhf
and mips porterboxes. I got it built on armhf (and will upload it if the
give back fails there). On mips it's been building for two days, and
apparently it went beyond the point were it failed on the buildd.
Unfortunately the porterbox is going to reboot in about 10h (I guess
because of a security update), so I'm not sure it will work.

Stay tuned.
