We partly discussed this on aur-general, and making sage smaller is a bit of a long-term task, if even possible. Anyway, dbscripts lack support for having split packages with one package being architecture-independent, so even splitting these data files away won't be easy.
Just a side note: I fear there wont be support for split packages with different arches in the near future due to some design problems mainly with our svn repo layout. (sorry for lack of details but I'll send a separate mail about it some day)
So for now its to sue a separate PKGBUILD if an "any" package is really needed.
If you do it all manually, you could just archrelease your PKGBUILD to repo-any and repo-{i686,x86_64}. db-move and db-remove might fail, but at least db-update should work fine. For some packages, such workarounds might be acceptable for the time being.
