CARCH and CHOST are necessary. Small example from the kernel PKGBUILD:
if [ "$CARCH" = "x86_64" ]; then
  cat ../config.x86_64 >./.config
 else
  # get rid of the 'i' in i686
  carch=`echo $CARCH | sed 's|i||'`
  cat ../config | sed "s|#CARCH#|$carch|g" >./.config
fi

without CARCH there is going this things wrong....

I will look if I can apply a patch, if I will find a little bit of
freetime...
