You're complaining that some packages qemu build-depends on are not

I'm asking why binary-arch for a given architecture (!= binary-indep)
isn't buildable on that very architecture.
There are many arch-all packages which aren't buildable
on anything but x86
That's not the same thing and that is not a problem.
In pseudo-code, my expectation and understanding is:
for arch in $all_binary_architectures:
apt source $package
apt build-dep
dpkg-buildpackage -B
the result should be _$arch.deb packages for every architecture the
package supports.
for qemu, that's not the case:
* building it on arm64 fails because build-deps are not installable.
* building it on amd64 (or any other arch) doesn't produce arm64 debs.
so, how are arm64 debs of qemu build exactly?
