Ah, good point. I suppose didn't think about this all the way through in
my response -- we wouldn't be able to probe an unprovisioned machine.
But your point gives me even more confidence in the decision to deduce
target architecture at runtime and have that as an environment-specific
check.

Thanks for chiming in!
