It's not machine independent so much as multi-target. The file
structure is basically:
32-bit header
32-bit data
64-bit header
64-bit data
Recent versions leave out the 32-bit data unless you pass -b fat on the
command line. To a legacy binary, that looks like a valid file (the
32-bit header is still present) with no transitions.
