Sam, IMHO this is one inconvenience of the many, due to absence of
conf-build, build mechanism (you have my message about just for fun
thoughts ;).

While trying to do something with lguest and "private" asm-offsets on
AMD64, i must use ARCH=i386 for testing stuff. Thus, i give you my patch
proposition (proposed patch, whatever) that remembers ARCH in Makefile
in $(objtree). Once you have setup, you may use just
`make target' there.
Randy, maybe this is *something* to have, than nothing. Testing is
appreciated.

Thanks.

Changes for mkmakefile:
* bugfix: _really_ generate Makefile once '!'
* use shell paramenter expansion only where needed, thus Makefile's body
is a little bit easy to read and write.
