Zcash: Remove the assumption that Darwin implies x86_64

Created on 16 Mar 2020  路  4Comments  路  Source: zcash/zcash

This assumption occurs in at least:

  • depends/packages/rust.mk (see also #4401)
  • rust_test() in qa/zcash/full_test_suite.py.

This is not a high priority, but is motivated by speculation that Darwin/macOS might at some point support ARM.

Ideally we'd buy an actual ARM-based Mac to test this on.
