I had to choose between getting this working in vaguely finite time and keeping both Debian and Ubuntu bootstraps in sync, so unstable just got stuck at the 'toolchain bootstrap needed' stage.
That's quite reasonable
Is raring useful to you or do you need sid? Once the toolchain is done it shouldn't be _too_ much work to get Debian uptodate although there will be a _lot_ of patched packages.
Raring is fine, just reached for Debian out of habit etc.
To be honest I'm probably getting a little bit ahead of myself anyway -- I'm working on aarch64 guest support for Xen at the minute and your mail prompted me to wonder how hard it would be to build the Xen tools for arm64 in a multiarch environment, to some extent the toolchain is the least of my worries ;-).
