All this suggests to me that the only thing we really can make fly is

include the differentiator in EXTRAVERSION. It will be noticeable to
users and probably draw a lot of questions and look redundant in many
places that display the arch too. But it would not be any new can of
worms on technical grounds.
That's basically the conclusion I came to too, and I've got a 2-line spec
patch (actually also using %{_target_cpu} instead of %{_arch}) that I'm
prodding at. Definitely way too many things that'll go boom if its not there
after some discussion on irc (and on this list).
