[issue35348] Problems with handling the file command output in platform.architecture()

[STINNER Victor]

STINNER Victor <vstinner at redhat.com> added the comment:

Why does platform has to analyze sys.executable binary to check if it's 32 or 64 bits? Can't we use sizeof(void*) for example? Is it something related to FAT binary on macOS? (single binary for 32 and 64 bits, or single binary for PPC and x86)
