Hi,

It doesn't only use hardwaremodel fact:
https://github.com/puppetlabs/facter/blob/master/lib/facter/architecture.rb#L6:L10
# Resolution:
#   On non-AIX IBM, OpenBSD, Linux and Debian's kfreebsd, use the 
hardwaremodel fact.
#   On AIX get the arch value from lsattr -El proc0 -a type
#   Gentoo and Debian call "x86_86" "amd64".
#   Gentoo also calls "i386" "x86".
