Right, I'm not really happy with this solution too because builds which
don't supply ARCH on the command line add "x86" to the archive name
and my intention was to have either "i386" or "x86_64" appended to the
archive name so that when building a bunch of different kernel packages,
I can know which is 32-bit and which is 64-bit.

Having it say "x86" doesn't tell me all that much. Whether it has "-" or
an "_" prepended I don't care.

So I'll go and revisit this thing. I'll add you to CC for feedback since
your script got broke :)

And, btw, other suggestions are appreciated too.

Thanks.
