Sorry guys:

ifeq (armel, $(DEB_HOST_ARCH))
CC = gcc -march=armv6
CXX = g++ -march=armv6
export CC
export CXX
endif

That's actually not going to work for "armel" hardware...  "armel" is
currently built as "armv4t", so "-march=armv6" is going to cause
invalid instruction faults on devices running armel..

While there is some talk to possibly bump it to "armv5" for stretch:
