I think that things that hold up people testing a development kernel is "important". Maybe not "critical", but certainly stuff I should fix asap, just so that people who might otherwise test a kernel (but aren't technical enough to fix even possibly trivial errors) won't get discouraged. And yes, x86(-64) is the one that matters a whole lot more for that kind of 'random tester' issue. If other architectures don't build in some random config, I don't consider that a huge deal, since anybody who builds a development kernel for (say) powerpc will also generally have the ability to fix whatever silly brown-paper-bug issue just as well as I could.
