This seems backwards. We encode the base architecture in configure.sh
because this is where we can make such distinctions. We then:

  echo "TARGET_BASE_ARCH=$TARGET_BASE_ARCH" >> $config_target_mak

Precisely so the make system can know what it is for any given target.
So:

Seems like a replication of information already calculated in configure
and prone to breakage if we add a new one (or come up with some franken
architecture at a later date).
