I've occasionally thought about doing that.  I've just not pulled the 
trigger on that yet.  I think I added ~amd64 to ACCEPT_KEYWORDS and 
looked at how many packages were going to change, got busy / needed to 
do something else at the time, and reverted with the decision to tackle 
it some other day.  That day hasn't come yet.
