cannot cross build i386 only package on amd64 host (closes: #624530)

Followup-For: Bug #624530
Package: pbuilder
Version: 0.200

found 624530 0.199+nmu2
severity 624530 important
tags 624530 patch
thanks

Hi,

The changes introduced in 0.199+nmu2 (arch-wildcard-part2.patch in
Message #159 of Bug#363193) breaks the cross building of packages
(not only i386 packages on amd64, but also amd64 ones on i386 running
on amd64 kernel).
The checkarchitecture must be done inside the build place.
That patch does not actually check anything, and what's worse, breaks
the cross building.
So I propose reverting back the changes.

Thanks,
