I don't have any real analysis at hand, but we use %ifarch-ed
BuildRequires regularly and it works as expected. Secondary arches do
builds from imported srpms that are created on primary arches. A problem
is when Source or Patch are %ifarch-ed and this is forbidden by the
Guidelines.

And I think you are right with the "noarch" set as the architecture
when srpm is being created in the BuildSRPMFromSCM task.
