Perhaps the canonicalization step made them the same?  We have both
$build and $build_alias, $target and $target_alias, if the wrong ones
(or the "right" ones) were compared, the vendor field might be
ignored.  That's why I suggested the CPU field instead.

The system doesn't do much with the $build string, you can experiment
with wildly different strings there and see what happens.
