Hmm, build_cpu really - I'm trying to solve RC bug #412102.

DEB_BUILD_GNU_CPU ?= $(shell dpkg-architecture -qDEB_BUILD_GNU_CPU)
USE_64PARSER_CPUS = zx86_64z
ifeq (,$(findstring z$(DEB_BUILD_GNU_CPU)z,$(USE_64PARSER_CPUS)))
    MAKEFILE = Makefile.64
endif

The original bug was a segfault on amd64 which I have fixed, I just
don't want another bug to appear on another architecture that should
also be using 64bit.
