Thanks Stephen, and apologies here. I thought I had taken a look at all archs
(just inspection, I didn't attempt to build them all) - but seems like I missed
this one..

I'm fine with the change, though I could see the argument that this is getting a
little complicated to save what is likely a few bits in the common case.
Appreciate the fix.
