Our level of differentiation between MACHINE and MACHINE_ARCH leaves a
lot to be desired in general.
Probably you want:
sys/${MACHINE_ARCH}/conf/files
sys/${MACHINE_ARCH}/conf/files.${MACHINE}
Or
sys/conf/files.${MACHINE_ARCH}
sys/${MACHINE_ARCH}/conf/files.${MACHINE}
And define MACHINE would correspond to the "platform" keyword, in that
context, ideally, and MACHINE_ARCH to "machine".
I don't think we'll see that in 5.x, though :/
