Whew. OK, I'll try to be good from now on. :-) Now, if you (or anyone else) can figure out a way to do this enabling/ disabling, I'd be extremely interested. The current way of using arch= attributes plus stylesheet support of disabling elements has the disadvantage that those elements are still "counted" for the purposes of sequence numbers (section numberings, etc.). The old way, which used INCLUDE/IGNORE, was really cumbersome because it added two lines to every single element where it was used. Plus, it wasn't flexible enough to handle an element that can be enabled if a conjunction of conditions is true (for example, "i386 OR alpha"). Thanks, Bruce.
