Sorry for the slow review, been away.

I don't this comment really applies to the new array.  How about:

/* An array that maps 64-bit architectures to the corresponding 32-bit
   architectures.  */

I think this should go before the "Return true if..." comment and should
have its own comment.  How about:

/* Return true if bfd machine EXTENSION is the same as BASE, or if
   EXTENSION is the 64-bit equivalent of a 32-bit BASE.  */

OK with those changes, thanks.
