Architecture-specific recipe files are loaded from ./$(uname
-m)/Recipe (e.g., x86_64/Recipe, i686/Recipe) on the appropriate
architecture, along with the basic Recipe file in the root. You can
overload or change the recipe behaviours like that. There are a few
recipes in the store that do that; Nvidia is the only one I can think
of off-hand, which isn't a great example, but it does show
architecture-specific settings.
