reading through base, it looks like os.arch is set to something based on
its original value, while that original value is actually used as
os_platform (and os.platform). if this is the case, those changes were
never ported into port[un]archive.tcl. i don't understand how to
reference platform correctly from there, as it seems that the values are
different when they're pulled from [option os.arch] versus $
{os.arch}
any care to shed light on this for a newbie tcl'er?
what i essentially want to do is change archive.fulldestpath from [file
join ${archive.destpath} [option os.platform] [option os.arch]] to [file
join ${archive.destpath} [option os.platform] ${os.arch}] where os.arch
is x86_64 or what have you, instead of option os.arch's i386
if i understood the transforms in portmain.tcl then that's what should
be done here. incidentally, after this one change we can actually do
binary distribution via archivemode
