There is no way to do that today - despite some part of the
infrastructure is prepared as you have noticed.
Would it be OK if we have arch/x86_64/boot present and have stub Makefiles
in all directories?
If thats OK I can try to cook up something.
It has been discussed to put all common stuff in arch/x86 which would anyway
call for a generic solution. For kbuild it does not matter if src shall be
located in i386 or x86 directory structure.
