So far, I have not so much omitted these architectures as left them to the
porters for those architectures.  The original patches that provided this
support are still carried along for iasl; the spec file will allow the package
to be built on these architectures.  In theory, all of the other tools should
just work (in practice, that has not been tested).

I'll make some time to determine if the latest versions still work on these
architectures and if not, fix them.
