I did not think that the m68k build daemon would upload the program, a human
has to do some stuff and upload. So how about a spounsered NMU built for a
different arch:

        Maintainer: (real maintainer)
        Changed-By: (non-developer nmu-er)
	Sponser: (sponser of person doing nmu)
	Builder: (m68k build daemon)
        Signer: (person who signed the upload)
        Uploader: (person who uploads)

Maybe I am going a bit over the top :-)
