User direction: 32-bit windows joins the canon marked for what it is -
status supported with runtime+lib tiers (hosting for available
third-party runtimes/libs), buildsuite CANDIDATE (zig can target it;
whether we add a buildsuite is undetermined) - the hosting-vs-building
axis expressing exactly that split. Name win32-ix86 = platform::generic's
own 32-bit x86 token (no normalization needed); normalize additionally
folds hand-typed i386/i486/i586/i686.
- vendorlib_tcl8/9 gain win32-ix86 dirs per the tree sync contract.
- punk-runtime local detection: ps1 returns win32-ix86 on genuine 32-bit
windows hosts (PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE x86 without ARCHITEW6432 - a
32-bit shell on a 64-bit OS keeps the x86_64 default: the runtime
store serves what the OS can run); bash MINGW32/CYGWIN prongs key off
the i*86 machine arch. Rewrapped; roundtrip pin PASS; twins + layout
copy refreshed.
Project 0.18.4.

src/vendormodules_tcl8 is a tm root - a pkgIndex-style directory there is
invisible to tm handling and nothing referenced this copy (experiment
leftover; added in an early bulk commit). Its designed home is the
platform vendor-library tree: pkgIndex-based, win-x64 dll, Tcl 8 ->
src/vendorlib_tcl8/win32-x86_64/ (reachable via make.tcl's bootstrap
lib paths and the libs build; kit inclusion stays declarative via
src/runtime/vendorlib_vfs.toml - no kit content change from this move).
pages.tcl's comment drift from the old TODO-resolution sweep (283ca03b)
reverted per the vendorlib dont-edit-vendor-code contract - the moved
copy is now byte-identical to the working punk86bawt.vfs payload copy.
Smoke-verified: package require cookfs -> 1.9.0 (dll load, Mount cmd
present) from the new location under native tclsh86t.
(tdbc/sqlite3-1.1.5.tm beside it is NOT misplaced - a namespace subdir
in a tm root is correct tm layout: package tdbc::sqlite3.)

Survey outcome (punkbin vs punkshell platform folders): five naming sites
had drifted - punkbin folders, bin/runtime, vendorlib_tclX dirs, the
punkboot platform_generic snips (an old platform::generic copy), and the
Tcl platform package itself whose outputs vary by version (1.1.x renamed
modern macOS to 'macos', aarch64/amd64 pass through unmapped).
Canon: <os>-<cpu> punkshell platform-dir names, cpu normalized
amd64->x86_64 and aarch64->arm64 (arm = 32-bit; on macosx arm folds to
arm64 - Apple silicon is 64-bit only), os macos->macosx. The universal
'macosx' name is the runtime-tier convention (punkbin + bin/runtime keep
one macOS folder, per make.tcl's existing collapse); per-arch
macosx-x86_64/macosx-arm64 serve the lib tier.
- new module punk::platform 0.1.0: platforms (canonical records with
status supported/dormant/recognized + tiers), normalize, local
?-tier lib|runtime? - full PUNKARGS argdocs. Tcl's platform package
stays the raw identifier underneath.
- punk 0.2.7: 'help platforms' topic (alias 'platform'; all prefixes
mutually ambiguous so they fall through to command lookup, per the
env/environment precedent) - canon table with the local interpreter
marked and raw platform-package identifiers for comparison.
- boot: punkboot platform_punk (inline normalization copy, sync-comment
contract with the module) in punk_main.tcl/project_main.tcl/make.tcl;
all platform-dir call sites switched to it. make.tcl exercised live;
main.tcl copies brace-verified.
- vendorlib_tcl8/9 synchronized to canon: freebsd-amd64 -> freebsd-x86_64
(READMEs updated), freebsd-arm64/linux-arm64/macosx-arm64 added, tcl8's
untracked-empty linux-arm now tracked + tcl9 gains linux-arm, stray
untracked macosx-arm empties removed, msys-x86_64 marked dormant
pending a utility decision, top-level READMEs state the canon contract.
- punk-runtime bash prongs emit canonical names: aarch64 -> linux-arm64
(no fetch default until punkbin carries that folder), arch-aware
freebsd/openbsd/netbsd/dragonflybsd via normalized cpu tokens.
Rewrapped; roundtrip pin PASS; layout copy + .ps1 twin refreshed.
Flagged for user decisions (recorded in G-105 Notes): punkbin linux-arm
holds an arm64-named kit (recommend linux-arm64 folder at next arm
publish; artifacts immutable), msys-x86_64 disposition, optional
platform-1.1.x re-vendor, src/vfs stays mapvfs-categorized (recommend a
mapvfs platform column when cross-wraps land, not a .vfs tree
restructure). Project 0.18.0.
