I don't think it's overly simple to guess what might actually happen, or
work.
You have to try it various ways, and as Ryan says, I guess also try it when
pandoc is pulled in as a dependency rather than directly installed, and see.
The automatic fallback to other supported arches (eg arm64 -> x86
If the Macports-compiled stack runs on arm64, then the prebuilt download will
too.
The issue as far as I can tell from the internet is that stack will generate
x86_64 binaries, even if running on an M1.

These x86_64 binaries should run
The stack port's +prebuilt variant installs a prebuilt binary of a particular
architecture or architectures. In that variant, the port must declare using
supported_archs what the architectures of that prebuilt binary are.

That line is indeed limiting support to intel machines. If it works on arm add
that to the list, or probably better just remove it and rely on the defaults.

Is this line in the stack Portfile the issue? Ports (like pandoc) that are
built using stack depend on the stack port, and port stack says that x86_64 is
supported, but not arm64. However, stack installs and runs just fine on an M1
box.

As far as I could tell, this applies to indi
