Collecting musings from the draft PR for further processing:

It seems to me %{_isa} should match the multiarch marker we add. The current basearch-bits ISA info clearly is closely related, and in its current form insufficient to express what it needs in a world of real multiarch. One thing currently missing in %{_isa} is the endianess, and that links us back to this older ticket requesting a macro for determining the endianess: #365. The other part is the flags which seems trickier because of how it's all generated from installplatform based on some arch names - there should be some kind of clear mapping of these things that is not a case-statement in a shell-script 🤪 

Another issue brought up by @voxik is that this seems to make noarch -> buildarch dependencies even more painful (#3579)
