Uh, that's supposed to work automatically though.  You shouldn't need
to know your architecture.  Sure, it'll *use* the symlink (and I do
know since I looked at the code that implements this! :-) but there
was no infrastructure for creating the architecture specific links and
if it's not done transparently then it's not much use (at least not
unless you *like* answering user questions :-).
