Great!

Well, I've always had all the variants for all supported archs and
didn't know that sometimes only part of them could be installed.
I've used and tested qemu-{i386,x86_64,arm,aarch64,mips,s390x,riscv64}
with this with success, and all of them are built by default for me.
Thus I'm not seeing a good reason for making a special case of x86_64.
Or maybe I'm missing the point ?

Thanks,
Willy
