Not the exception, by a long shot.
As an extension of Tom's first librify email, I'd say split libarch into three directories: utility functions into libarch-util, cmd-*.[ch] (and related) into libarch-cmds, and leave most of the remaining code in libarch.
The cmd- files don't seem central to libarch. They're tla wrappers around Arch primitives. cmd-commit.c is tla, and deals with input validation and interpretation for commandline-based programs. commit.c is the one that relates directly to Arch. So I think that commands should be grouped with tla, possibly in the tla directory.
If we're renaming files anyway (by moving them), we could strip the cmd- prefix off the files at the same time.
