indeed sbuild should support the Build-Depends-Arch field since version
0.62.6-1.

Incidentally I'm also the Debian maintainer (as well as upstream) of the second
package in Debian that makes use of Build-Depends-Arch, called botch. I'm
always testing botch with sbuild and was in the past as well as now unable to
reproduce your problem.

Are you able to reproduce this problem outside of your buildd environment?

Indeed your log looks as if sbuild would just consider the Build-Depends field
only.

Thanks!

cheers, josch
