Hi,

Thanks for looking into this.

I have not yet looked at this in fully.  However, I think it would be
prudent to use a lookup-table rather than the if-elsif-elsif-waterfall:

Also, should we fail when we do not know the value for
CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME?  It would probably make it easier to spot missing
support for new architectures.

Thanks,
