Good point, although we could check if the description
included an arch.

I think that's the same in practice as Joel's original
patch then, since `compatible' either returns either
NULL, a or b.  This still catches the
obviously-incompatible cases, so may be worth keeping,
while anything smarter is probably not worth the effort
then.
