I saw that it was selecting unsupported.cpp and generating the #error on 
the first run of tests after the change, but you are correct that it 
seems not to have selected this alias on the lastest run.  You may be 
right that it is now matching to the newer ARM stuff.

However, it is not preventing tests of other libraries from running, 
which was the earlier problem, so that is good.  (Although a different 
issue with test output path names on a few libraries getting beyond the 
256 character limit is now causing this problem, but I am working on it 
separately).

Thanks,
