That's the problem. Without -D$(ARCHSYMBOL) the architecture symbol
doesn't get frozen and thus immune to assignment rollback.
I've added -D$(ARCHSYMBOL) to the production line.

I don't understand this yet. I need to find a way to reproduce it.
Can you supply one?

I'll add that to my tests.

[W]hat country can preserve its liberties, if its rulers are not
warned from time to time that [the] people preserve the spirit of
resistance? Let them take arms...The tree of liberty must be
refreshed from time to time, with the blood of patriots and tyrants.
