	# Returns a list of all CPU architecture names that the current machine CPU
	# supports. If there are multiple such architectures then the first item in
	# the result denotes that OS runtime's main/preferred architecture.
	#
	# This function normalizes some names. For example x86 is always reported
	# as "x86" regardless of whether the OS reports it as "i386" or "i686".
	# x86_64 is always reported as "x86_64" even if the OS reports it as "amd64".
	#
	# Please note that even if the CPU supports multiple architectures, the
	# operating system might not. For example most x86 CPUs nowadays also
	# support x86_64, but x86_64 Linux systems require various x86 compatibility
	# libraries to be installed before x86 executables can be run. This function
	# does not detect whether these compatibility libraries are installed.
	# The only guarantee that you have is that the OS can run executables in
	# the architecture denoted by the first item in the result.
	#
	# For example, on x86_64 Linux this function can return ["x86_64", "x86"].
	# This indicates that the CPU supports both of these architectures, and that
	# the OS's main/preferred architecture is x86_64. Most executables on the
	# system are thus be x86_64. It is guaranteed that the OS can run x86_64
	# executables, but not x86 executables per se.
	#
	# Another example: on MacOS X this function can return either
	# ["x86_64", "x86"] or ["x86", "x86_64"]. The former result indicates
	# OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard) and beyond because starting from that version
	# everything is 64-bit by default. The latter result indicates an OS X
