http://hydra.gnu.org/build/1295673/log/raw Star currently fails to build

__uint128_t, which as far as I know isn't supported on 32-bit systems,
so it looks to me like we should disable support for i686 and armhf.
Agreed, it seems likely that this bionformatics tool never worked on
these systems. I will disable builds for these platforms.
Thank you.  This seems to be the right approach for now.  Maybe we
should also file a bug report upstream?  At least we’ll know if they
would be willing to support systems other than x86_64.

Pushed as 'c11f79a'.

I decided not to file a bug report since I noted that the README specifies that a 64 bit system is required.

Thanks,
ben
