I never thought about that. Maybe we should add the host arch to the file
name here?

Well, all "cross-*" packages will have the same problems. Other than that,
I don't think so. Some packages may create host tools, but those should not
be visible past the install stage. You can verify that easily: Just check
the architecture of all executables in the devpkgs with 'file'. Anything
!arm will be a problem.
