Right. This sound like something to put in the subarch reporting tool
I have wanted a long time. We use 'dpkg
--print-installation-architecture' to report architecture, but there
is no similar tool to report sub-architecture. Can you provide some
'subarch' program/package to report this information? I do not want
to have the code to detect it in popularity-contest, but would be
interested in reporting the output from some other package if it
exist.

I know libdebian-installer have some subarch detection code. If it
would provide a user space package in the installed system, I would be
very happy. :)
