But that breaks when people are building with --target i686
explicitely or implicitely which some downstream may consider (how
many times have there been people asking for rebuilding Fedora on i686
...)

Using ExclusiveArch to control the buildsystem is not correct. I
wonder how glibc does it. Also ExclusiveArch hacks?

Anyway ATM I wouldn't dare suggest a better alternative, let the dust
settle first ;)
