I'd still sort of prefer no special cases.  However ...

For the ISO / memstick filenames we could just program in `uname -p`
and ask the pc98 builder to modify the filenames post-build.  But
we still have the dual names needed for the FTP site layout.  There
it needs to be fully automated in the installer.

So, given it seemed like we're sort of stuck with having the dual
names appearing in other places combined with it never causing us
to have special cases and/or conflicts it seemed like just biting
the bullet and having them in the ISO / memstick filenames too ...

Have I mentioned I don't like any of the options?  :-/
