Sorry for the lack of feedback.

I'm fairly strongly against a separate aarch64 only recipe for this.
Realistically we therefore have to fix this in the existing
class/code/recipe.

The changes you sent previously didn't look that horrific, did you find
a working version of that?

I'm wondering if we can come up with something which works and
hopefully we can spot some way to then clean it up to be a bit nicer...

The delay was that I was going to try and come up with something but
that hasn't happened yet. If you have a horrific non-separate recipe
version that is complete, we can see if we can do anything to improve
it.

Cheers,

Richard
