Well, it's possible to do it but it's not easy --- you need to deal
with the fact that the configure-generated headers should be different
for the different arches.  There were some discussions in -hackers
last year about how to do it.

The reported location of the error is not code that I would expect to be
subject to architectural issues, though, so I suspect this isn't
immediately relevant.
