We have been through the same discussion not so long ago and the
result was to start dropping the ~m68k, s390 and sh to ~testing[1]. In
the thread that started it all[2] there has been no resistance about
dropping the keywords of these arches on $subject and here we are
again discussing the problem. Here[3] you can see council's decision.
I quote here just for fyi:

"In summary:
- - m68k, s390, sh: will be dropped to unstable keywords globally.
- - alpha, ia64: Maintainers can remove older stable versions according
  to the "package-by-package" proposal.
- - sparc: No action.
"
So unless I make a mistake, you are free to start dropping alpha, ia64
to ~arch. For ppc,ppc64 and sparc it's probably best to resurrect the
old thread and possible have add it to the agenda for the next meeting.
