Hmmm.. I guess the code tries to verify that the result architecture
after personality() matches with uname.machine (except to
i{486,586,...}), to be sure that our request has been correctly
interpreted by kernel.
IMHO it's correct.
I removed the change from incoming pull request, and try to improve the
'Unrecognized architecture' message this week. Since the condition looks
impossible reach maybe the message should encourage to report to
util-linux maillist with which transitions[i].result_arch and un.machine
values one was able to see it.
