Comment (by marco.serantoni@…):

 It is a great idea the FAT binaries, it is not limited to 4, could have
 also more than 4 at time.
 Theorically could support x86/MIPS/MC98k/ARM/SPARC/POWERPC all together at
 expenses of size, i miss this features with /lib /lib64, one file N
 architectures ;)
 This is done from the compiler usually, that spawns N compiler one for
 each "-arch" and assemble all in a single .o or binary.

 {{{
 KO - x86/32
 KO - x86/64
 OK - x86/32_64
 KO - power/32
 KO - power/64 (indicated as x86 in build file)
 OK - power/32_64
 OK - combined/32
 OK - combined/64
 OK - combined/32_64
 }}}

 I've elaborated another patch to fix, you should avoid to use the [make ]
 and use the compiler to do the work.
 The issue with the x86/32 is referred to the label (probably 'as' doesn't
 like a label at the beginning of the row)
 Works if passing thru the compiler.
