I see - thank you for clarifying this. Just to summarize if I got
it correctly:

* 'platform independent' action (like text file) doesn't have variant.arch tag

* action which is not necessarily platform independent, but is found
 the be common for both Sparc and x86 during merge process doesn't have
 variant.arch tag


This is correct; we publish on each platform and compare. If the action
is the same on all platforms, it is left untagged; if it differs on any,
a separate copy of the action is delivered for each platform. This hasn't arisen yet, since we only have two platforms.

* Are there actions where variant.arch is set for multiple architectures
 (Sparc and x86) ?

No. Since we have only two architectures, this can't happen, and furthermore the merge program duplicates actions if only some variants
share them.
