Comment:

 Yes, I am adding a default case to make the build fail on unknown
 architectures.

 john 1.9.0 does not provide a target for arm64 on macOS in its custom
 Makefile so I will mark the port as not supporting arm64 systems. It will
 then install for x86_64 on arm64 systems. This problem does not affect
 john-jumbo's autotools build system and it presumably won't affect the
 next version of john if it switches to the autotools build system. (The
 custom Makefile was already renamed to Makefile.legacy in the upstream
 repository in 2014.)
