13 This one would probably be x86/x86_64 , as Mike said drop amd64.
14
15 (Tho I much prefer amd64, or if it's changed, something else without a _,
16 which is hard to type, at least on the US/qwerty layout, requiring both
17 hands to get the shift, and two rows up plus over to get the _, amd64
18 works quite nicely in that regard.)

27 Don't forget current amd64/no-multilib. I guess that's be
28
29 * x86/x86_64/no-multilb
30
31 (Tho again, I'd prefer keeping amd64, for x86/amd64/no-multilib.)
32
33 And presumably there's also be
34
35 * x86/x32/no-multilib
