Sure, we can. I prefer the arch checking just because I think it's more 
"logical", so it's easier to understand why it's there. The "cost" is 
the same in practice, since the arch checking is just a macro that 
checks a struct member.

What do you think it's better? Thanks for the review.

Cheers,
