Subject: [PATCH] Makefile: remove dependency on archscripts for header installation

There doesn't seem to be any purpose behind this dependency, and it prevents
installing x86 and mips headers on non Linux systems. Doing so is useful when
building a cross compiler targetting Linux, which requires the header files.
