Thanks for noticing this. Is ARCH even the correct variable to use?
Maybe SRCARCH would be better. Then it would be enough to test for x86,
if I understand the toplevel Makefile correctly.

On SPARC, it seems to be possible that ARCH is sparc32 or sparc64 while
SRCARCH is always sparc, so currently xz_wrap.sh seems to be buggy on
SPARC too.
