Removing that error would mean to check all code if that actually works
that way. I never even imagined that all might be added to Architectures
and was quite suprised to see that people added it and it does not cause
segmentation faults all way long. Having this word have a double meaning
also makes all of other misunderstandings possible (like what does -A
all mean)
I'll think a bit more about that. Any more ideas/use cases/additions
always welcome.
