The initial version of this pull request extends the permitted build platforms for Linux to the Java architectures `arm`, `ppc64le`, and `s390x` and adds an entry to the dependency verification file for the `i386` architecture. The Debian names for these architectures are `armhf`, `i386`, `ppc64el`, and `s390x`.

I changed the patch to print a warning message instead of failing when the build machine's architecture is unrecognized, based on the discussion [on the mailing list][1].

I then built JavaFX on six Linux architectures. Three of the resulting build log files contain the warning message as expected (`arm`, `ppc64le`, and `s390x`):
