If we eventually tunnel these structures over some kind of IPC
mechanism it might be necessary to deal with values from other than
the native architecture.

So perhaps per-arch fields should exist in every version and just have
the arch in their name somehow, although that wouldn't spot people
setting them inappropriately.

Alternative a variadic substructure where _init sets the enum to the
default native arch ?

Ian.
