Surely it's just wanting to know roughly what architecture to build
for.  The difference between i686 and i486 isn't relevant here.
(I hope.  If it is then we have other problems because this is tested
at build-time and might be run on a different kernel to the one it's
built on.)

So I think this is the right thing to do.
