Actually, my diagnosis was wrong. For some reason I thought archdetect started using debconf a few months ago to cache the result in a debconf variable, but I just checked the source and I'm wrong.

Anyway, I found the real cause: if the machine is not Netwinder, the script does an "exit 0" - but we're being sourced rather than run, so this obviously has to be "return 0". This also explains why I didn't see the problem when I tested on a Netwinder. I'll upload a fix.
