Not to dash any hopes/ideas, but I'd like us to focus on getting our /currently/
supported ISO architectures fixed. There are plenty of things to fix there
without looking for new ones. Once 0.9.4 is out, as I've said a few times, then
we can start work on which ISO script will be used for the 0.9.5 to 1.0-pre ISOs
and, /maybe/, adding "official" support for at least a pure64 x86_64 (since we
already seem to have a mostly working ISO).
