Your patch does not make much sense. APT is written in C++, but you are
writing raw C code (and use different function naming style).

Furthermore, I think it should be much easier to support this than you
do in your patch. We just need to do replace 'any' in the architecture
wildcard by '*' and check if it matches the current arch or the current
arch prefixed by 'linux-' by calling fnmatch().

Julian
