[Crash-utility] Support for crash running on an ARM 32 bit host analyzing ARM 32 bit crash files? Looking unlikely. :(

I forgot that comment in the Makefile even existed -- it's also missing X86_64, ARM64,
PPC64, S390 and S390X.

What happened when you tried to build a 32-bit ARM binary?  It's been "supported"
for about 10 years now, but depends upon patches, fixes, and testing by external
developers (outside Red Hat), given that we have no 32-bit ARM hardware to
test on.
