In that case I'll just leave it; my impression was, that this helps
bulk infrastructure in some way, perhaps because slow archs can avoid
building PKG_ARCH=* and use packages built by faster archs, or so...

Wasn't sure, but saw textproc/aspell/dicts/Makefile.inc do it, so preferred
the simple diff over a little scripting.
