Or “linux32”. And I believe that programmes can have a reasonable
expectation that $(uname -p) matches what gcc will produce by
default – I cursed like a sailor when Apple broke that, first.
Let’s not follow. So please, when running i386 builds, always
do that in a (faked) i386 environment.

That being said, maybe we _should_ always set ${ARCH}?

guy. But he's always right! In every fsckin' situation, he's right. Even
with his deeply perverted taste in software and borked ambition towards
broken OSes - in the end, he's damn right about it :(! […] works in mksh
