13 I've attached to the bug a proposed patch which allows individual
14 architectures, when registering themselves, to optionally provide the
15 name to use in connection with genkernel. This is then passed to the
16 shell scripts doing the lifting as clst_hostkarch (which defaults to the
17 regular hostarch value if a kernel architecture name is not specified).

19 The implementation could maybe a little prettier, but it WORKSFORME.
