I think it should be. Or the porters should monitor the builds on their architecture to be able to detect FTBFS and act on them, without the maintainer having to manually ping them. If we expect the maintainer to ping the porters, then we lack proper infrastructure to keep track of current queries to porters. For example, I would expect a BTS pseudo-package for each architecture that I could use to ask for porter help, not just debian-$arch@ mailing lists where it's easy to lose track of discussions.
