Preferably both. For example, if running a PPC binary on Intel and a
new version becomes available online I can display a customized alert
that this new version is a UB. If they are running a PPC binary on
PPC, why do they care.
Please, this is purely speculative at the time. Personally, I don't
believe the above is a great use, but I'm looking for a reliable method.

In particular, it would give you the wrong answer for a PPC binary
running on an Intel chip via Rosetta.
But I do wonder if Thom really wants to know the Chip, or the
platform of the compiled binary?
