Hi Ludo',

I see, yeah, I eventually figured out that aarch64 was what I was
supposed to be using (I think I was reading
https://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/Tuples when I realized this).

However, what confuses me still was that 'arm64-linux' did work as a
system type: A bunch of packages failed to build, but some builds were
successful. Maybe that input just makes it default to 'armhf-linux'?
