The change looks good overall, but I'm concerned about the performance if there are multiple of the same library used by different modules. In this case the library will be copied once per arch per module. I'm not sure if it would make a giant impact, but just something to think about because you would be doing extra IO accesses for each duplicate library autogen.
Possible suggestion: Is it possible to change the hash to include the arch? Or you can store a unique tuple pair like (lib.arch, lib) in the set to reduce the libraries being copied to a unique subset.
