The only "binary" package IIRC is ejabberd-xs. And given that it's
"compiled" against Erlang, it may well be portable bytecode.

There are also "pyo" files which should be portable across
platform/cpu (but not across Python version).

That'll have tarballs. You are looking for the git repos, which are
all under http://dev.laptop.org/git/

Help cleaning up bogus explicit arch welcome :-)
