If we seem to employ some naming transition rule based on TARGET_ARCH and TARGET, why not simply check just for pc98 as I suggested earlier, and return TARGET in this case, and TARGET_ARCH otherwise? Generalizing, perhaps this rule can be extended to the list of TARGET/TARGET_ARCH combos for which we return TARGET, and TARGET_ARCH for the rest? (This is for ISO file names; for release directory structure John's suggestion looks reasonable.) ./danfe
