I'm not sure what the third part should match. no, platform.machine() doesn't return any normalized machine name. At least for ix86 (i386, i486, i586), ARM32 (armv4, armv5+, armv7, ...), ALPHA, and MIPS. and testing for the second part only seems to be a bit odd.

no, platform.machine() doesn't return any normalized machine name. At least for
ix86 (i386, i486, i586), ARM32 (armv4, armv5+, armv7, ...), ALPHA, and MIPS.

and testing for the second part only seems to be a bit odd.
