I spoke too soon. It does not quite work. It builds an amd64 arch
package, so I cannot install it on an i386 arch. The build itself seems
to be done correctly for the target arch, but the package is created for
the host arch.
I would have thought that -arch i386 would produce an i386 arch package,
but apparently not.
Any ideas?
