Packages that don't build for certain archs due to build problems simply
are bugged.

IMO, the appropriate means to handle such cases would be filing
individual PRs. I.e. filing them under "package:xyz  arch:foo" should be
sufficient.

If you really want something centralized, add a Bugzilla keywords,
bugzilla queries could use, but am having doubts on if this would be
useful at all.

Packages for which "Exclusive/ExcludeArch" is a feature, aren't bugged,
therefore I don't see any need to file a PR on them at all.

If you want a list/table of "non-general packages", a script could
extract this info from *.src.rpms (E.g. the buildsys could do this, when
shifting a package from "needssign" to "release"). Whether to feed
bugzilla with this info is arguable, automatically feeding a Wiki might
be more appropriate.
