What is actually the reason why arm64 is declared supported but
mips64el and ppc64el are not?
Even if the package works properly only on 64bit little endian,
all of them should work equally well.

It is just a warning.
And the file where the detection code is is itself built with
"-msse2 -mfpmath=sse"...
Upstream seems to have the bug of first implementing proper
autodetection and (at least partially with ->funcsse) runtime
selection, and then building *everything* with -msse2.

And it does not make sense to run i386 on non-ancient hardware.
Netbooks with older Intel Atoms or the OLPC XO are basically the most
recent machines where amd64 cannot be used.
It is also dangerous to make the supported CPUs a per-package decision:
You would quickly end up with some packages requiring AVX, or using
features that are only present on recent Intel (and not AMD) CPUs.

Even ignoring the SSE2 question, aren't you basically saying that the
i386 package is known broken - and upstream doesn't give a damn?
