If what causes problems down the road? Afaics the patch doesn't change
anything outside of windows-on-arm, so it shouldn't cause any breakage we care
about until we get a buildfarm animal.

We've traditionally been somewhat relaxed about adding support for new
platforms, on similar notions. That said:

There doesn't seem to be a great urgency, and there's plenty stuff going on
right now. I can see us merging it post branching off, and then backpatching
it a bit later?
