Comment 3 for bug 1873406

Okay thanks. The EpicsHostArch.pl script was designed for auto-detection of "what kind of host OS am I running on" which it does by asking Perl. To build for any other architecture that I know my machine is also capable of building for I would expect to have to manually set the EPICS_HOST_ARCH variable to that architecture. Were you expecting anything different?

From Google it looks like the msys 32-bit Perl should have archname=i686-msys-thread-multi-64int so I can add that too.
