This patch is now diffed against Linus's tree. The issue first arose
in the 2.6.38 release.
Regards,
Robert Gordon
scripts/package/builddeb script was setting the host machine
$arch in the KERNEL/debian/control prior to an invocation of
dpkg-gencontrol. The patch modifies the script to guarantee the
correct
debian arch for the target is written to the control file instead.
