I have used this approach in some spec files myself, but I recently
read that the %{__isa_bits} macro is not necessarily defined for all
64-bit platforms, just for those that are multiarch; i.e., that have a
32-bit variant [1]. Is this true for Fedora? Do we support any
platforms for which %{__isa_bits} is NOT defined? Even if we don't
now, is there any possibility that we will in the future? It sure
would be nice to have a macro we can rely on to distinguish between
32-bit and 64-bit platforms for some packages.
