Hi,

In dpkg-gensymbols(1), it is explained that it is possible to mark
symbols as architecture specific (under "Standard symbol tags").

While it says the "format of <architecture list>" is the same as
Build-Depends, it was (to me) not immediately clear whether that
allows architecture wildcard or not.

I had a look at the source code and it appears that architecture
wildcards are accepted[1].
