Why is this restricted to x86_64? (if, for example, it simply cannot be cross compiled, it should instead be marked as nocross)

New gtk2 packages aren't going to be accepted.
And the gtk3 version doesn't have a tagged release.
chewing/ibus-chewing#162
There is an open issue to create a new release, but it has received no response.

Ya, that's why I directly cloned the repo before, instead of downloading the realeases. The git version of the package has been ported to gtk3, but it is not released.

You can get a tarball at a specific commit from GitHub. I don't think this meets quality requirements, it either uses GTK2 or it doesn't have a release.

I just simply fork it, and release the latest commit by myself.

No, that's equivalent to just not using a release. A release is required because the developers know the best when the code is stable and usable. If we packaged the latest commit, we would have to figure out issues on our own and the maintenance burden would be much higher.
