Comment (by ryandesign):

 I've made this change now despite my earlier objection because the
 performance observation is certainly valid, and I'm setting up the macOS
 12 arm64 buildbot worker before the x86_64 one, and hopefully nearly a
 year in now most of the arm64 issues with noarch ports and their
 dependencies have been resolved, and if not, this is an added incentive to
 fix them.

 After committing this it occurred to me that this might adversely affect
 the macOS 11 and later CI workers. They might skip builds for which there
 is no arm64 machine that will do the builds. If so, we'll need to have a
 way in this Tcl script to differentiate the CI machines from the Buildbot
 machines. Not sure if we already have such a method.
