[and let's try it on a system that doesn't have a corrupted PATH, hmm?]

10.3 $ dpkg-architecture 
DEB_BUILD_ARCH=darwin-powerpc
DEB_BUILD_GNU_CPU=powerpc
DEB_BUILD_GNU_SYSTEM=darwin
DEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE=powerpc-darwin
DEB_HOST_ARCH=darwin-powerpc
DEB_HOST_GNU_CPU=powerpc
DEB_HOST_GNU_SYSTEM=darwin
DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE=powerpc-darwin

10.4/pcc % dpkg-architecture 
dpkg-architecture: warning: Unknown gcc system type powerpc-apple-darwin8, 
falling back to default (native compilation)
dpkg-architecture: warning: Specified GNU system type powerpc-darwin does not 
match gcc system type powerpc-apple-darwin8.
DEB_BUILD_ARCH=darwin-powerpc
DEB_BUILD_GNU_CPU=powerpc
DEB_BUILD_GNU_SYSTEM=darwin
DEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE=powerpc-darwin
DEB_HOST_ARCH=darwin-powerpc
DEB_HOST_GNU_CPU=powerpc
DEB_HOST_GNU_SYSTEM=darwin
DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE=powerpc-darwin

So it really does look like a bug in dpkg--maybe falls off the end of an array 
of known host types?
