This is not correct. The host arch should be empty, or some magic value
that says "any arch". Ditto for all "internal" toolchain configurations.

Also, I need to think about the deployment: if I deploy the new CSV
file on the server, but the build slaves have not yet updated their
autobuild-run script, what will happen.

I believe it *should* be fine: the old version of the autobuild-run
script will detect the host arch as "x86" so it will only use a subset
of the toolchains, but it will not fail badly or report errors. Then
when the script gets updated, it will properly detect the host arch as
x86_64 for the 64 bits machine, and it will restart using all possible
toolchains.

Thanks!

Thomas
