Argh, sorry, this is a 3.0-ism.  Hmmm.  Help, Satoshi!  Since your
stuff is sort of weirdly "cross branch" here, what's the canonical way
of dealing with architecture specific changes in the ports collection?

I don't expect this to come up a lot since few ports are like unzip,
one which actually comes with i386 assembly files that it tries to use
in the "freebsd" target case (otherwise it uses C versions which work
fine on the alpha), but for when it does we should probably have a
policy.
