* **`EPICS_HOST_ARCH`**
Some host builds of EPICS require that the environment variable
`EPICS_HOST_ARCH` be defined. The perl script `EpicsHostArch.pl` in the
`base/startup` directory prints the value which the build will use if
the variable is not set before the build starts. Architecture names
start with the operating system followed by a dash and the host CPU
architecture, e.g. `linux-x86_64`. Some architecture names have another
dash followed by another keyword, for example when building for Windows
but using the MinGW compiler the name must be `windows-x64-mingw`. See
`configure/CONFIG_SITE` for a list of supported host architecture names.
