The fact that mips is not included is exactly the reason I did not 
remove ONLY_FOR_ARCHS.

If what you say is the general consensus I'll be quite happy to get rid 
of it.

For the record, asterisk used to fail on many architectures due to some 
C language constructs it uses which were not supported by older 
compilers in some cases, especially for more exotic architectures still 
using older compilers or less supported by the compilers being used.

I guess this compiler mix situation is not an issue anymore.
