removal of sbcl and vcs-tree on some architectures

Hi all!

    As noted by Peter Van Eynde in [0] the reason for sbcl no longer
being built on !x86 arichtectures is not actually building there (I just
built it on powerpc successfully last night) but rather the lack of
anyone who is able to support these architectures.

sbcl does unfortunately do some quite low-level stuff so each supported
platform requires deep knowledge of these. So it might be the best to
have it on i386 amd64 only for squeeze and remove the other binaries
(also for vcs-tree).

Regards

    Christoph
