[arch-releng] 2010.04.04, i686 images have x86_64 kernel

So, i built new images.
http://build.archlinux.org/isos/

they "should" work.
built from the latest archiso, using the latest configs
however when i try to boot the i686 image, just after the isolinux
menu, i get this:
"this kernel requires an x86_64 cpu, but only detected an i686 cpu.
Unable to boot - please use a kernel appropriate for your cpu."

any of the archiso hackers know how this can happen?
the makefile does just a `uname -m` and obviously i was in the i686
chroot (and it named the isos i686.iso, so the detection should work)
and:
cat root-image/etc/mkinitcpio.d/kernel26.kver
# DO NOT EDIT THIS FILE
ALL_kver='2.6.32-ARCH'
