Sadly I find some common library packages still do not support cross-build, nor does g++ seem to work anymore, but cross-compiling with multiarch can be so fast and effective in debian when it actually does work. This is just about adding a "-m" flag to buildit, where it would then run the default architecture chroot and instead pass the --arch flag to dpkg-buildpackage --host-arch. The changes should be pretty trivial.
