[aur-general] missing "arch" in core, community, extra

[Yura Siamashka]

Hi

The official PKGBUILDs in core, extra, community often don't contain "arch" variable. Of course they can't be build with simple makepkg (missing arch error). I have read Arch Packaging Standards and find no mention about a situation where omiting "arch" variable is legal. 

Am I missing something or these official PKGBUILDS just broken?

Here is list of such packages:
