 As I was upgrading to build against Python 3.9, I ran into the following
 error:

 I edited a local copy of octave-1.0.tcl to manually set the arch, both for
 pre-configure and pre-destroot stages, and the installation went as
 expected.

 Thus, it seems, {{{$OCTAVE_ARCH}}} never is set for the
 {{{configure.cmd}}} and {{{destroot.cmd}}}.
