even if a 64-bit architecture is available.
.Pp
The
-.Fl h
-option prints a usage message and exits.
-.Pp
-The
.Ar arch_name
argument must be one of the currently supported architectures:
.Bl -tag -width x86_64 -offset indent
.It i386
32-bit intel
-.It ppc
-32-bit powerpc
-.It ppc64
-64-bit powerpc
.It x86_64
64-bit intel
.El
one in order, skipping an architecture that is not supported on the current
processor, or is unavailable in the universal binary.
.Pp
+The other options are:
+.Bl -tag -width ".Fl e Ar envname=value"
+.It Fl 32
+Add the native 32-bit architecture to the list of architectures.
+.It Fl 64
