Why would you care about which architectures the executable supports?
What you actually want to know is which machine models are supported;
whether board foo happens to be ARM or PPC isn't really very interesting
IMHO.
That's a very good point. It was the libvirt folks that requested
this. Perhaps they can shed some light on the logic?
