sorry about the confusion.  Noticed by other people as well.  The change should
be safe, only adding support for new targets which shouldn't affect current
architectures.  Now staying away from any other 3.5 updates until 3.6 is
released.  I'm usually trying to update these files before releases but maybe
was a bit late this time.
