Do you mean 'as buildds'? Debian's support from cross-building has
improved hugely over the last 8 years, and you can now crossbuild a
_lot_ of debian. Helmut told me 'nearly 2/3rds' a while ago, although
I'm not sure if that's 2/3rds of _everything_, or some subset.

There is lots more that could be done (not least educating upstreams
that like to do 'uncrossable things'), but we are the opposite of
'fundamentally opposed to it'.

In what way is arm64 'in jeopardy'? I don't think it's going anywhere.
