I think that's happening.
On Debian unstable, we currently have 10291 installed packages.
We are neck to neck with ppc64, and a couple hundred behind alpha.

At this point, adding new packages requires porting and bug fixes. The
signal change proposed
by Helge here is an example.
I am working at the moment on an update to the GCC fast indirect call
support for Linux. There
are also two trunk breakages and several minor issues ongoing.
Is there something specific you would like to see?
