I think the library should be fair and compile for the platform it is requested for. The question of the default target platform should be directed to compiler or Debian dev team.
in theory i'd agree with you, but i doubt that it is easy to convince the debian devs to change their defaults ... and then we (well i) may still have problems with other linux distributions, maybe mingw/cygwin ...
Why not instruct the compiler to build for the platform you want to build for instead?
my users are barely capable of handling a build system, not to mention a compiler ... artists who are eager to user open source, you know
