In jobs you submit, you'll have to include a
((Arch=="X86_64")||(Arch=="INTEL"))

expression if you want it to match both, or change the configuration 
files on your X86_64 machines to include

ARCH = "INTEL"

The default is going to remain X86_64 machines report X86_64, and IA32
machines report "INTEL" for now - there are people who don't want
IA32 jobs to run on X86_64, so it's safer for us to not run them
by default. (ie we'd rather have jobs not run than run with errors)
