Not for x86 :-(

Error is due to do_compile_ptest() forcing ARCH="${TARGET_ARCH}". The
tests Makefile uses ARCH to setup include paths but there isn't a
direct mapping between OE's arch values and the ones expected by
strace. In this case ARCH should be "i386" in order to find the header
file correctly, not "i586".

Removing ARCH="${TARGET_ARCH}" from do_compile_ptest() and letting
strace auto detect fixes the build failure.

Forcing ARCH was introduced here:

  http://git.openembedded.org/openembedded-core/commit/?id=af76eb0405352d66dfd00d7f856f401d892855e1

But I'm not 100% clear what the original problem was though, so I'm
not sure about just undoing that change without some more
investigation. Any thoughts?
