+  * Allow the user to specify the ARCH on the livecd.sh command line,
+    overriding the use of the dpkg architecture for the livecd run.
+  * Differentiate between ARCH (the local architecture) and TARGETARCH,
+    so that builds of ubuntu-lpia continue to work on the i386 buildd.
+  * Pass ARCH by default from BuildLiveCD to livecd.sh; this should be
+    manually overridden on cross-arch buildds, instead of using dpkg.
+  * Update default suite in BuildLiveCD to intrepid, gutsy's a bit old.
