I committed a change that allows architecture specifiers in the Depends: field. That shouldn't skip the test though; Build-Depends: and binary Depends: don't skip the whole package because a single dependency isn't available, and sometimes you want to do stuff like "Depends: 32bitpkg [i386], 64bitpkg [amd64]"?
Now the tests can be written to skip themselves if they can't work without the arch specific dependency, or can just skip that one particular check which uses them.
