What I want to verify is that the change you're pushing is the minimal possible change to dbscripts, ABS and devtools per Florian's request, right? For example, it's fine to delete the *-i686-build symlinks. But archbuild should keep the part of its code that determines an arch from $0 so that we are still future proof in supporting multiple architectures.
