It isn't that simple -- the kernel module doesn't build 64-bit, but all
the userspace components (the library and framework) do.

Setting supported_archs i386 implies that the userspace components need
to be built 32-bit, which is neither necessary nor desirable (it would
force dependent ports like sshfs to biuld 32-bit). And it would still
allow a 32-bit kext to be built for a 64-bit kernel, which isn't
useful.

If there's a way to indicate a kernel architecture requirement, I'm not
aware of it. Maybe we should check in a pre-fetch phase and error out?
