I had a quick look at the sources today (sid: apt-get source arch) and
I concluded that I won't look again at it.  The problem I have with
arch is that Tom seems to roll his own thing all over the place.  The
configuration system is more than strange for a GNU hacker, hundreds
of deeply nested directories, his own C library and far too many shell
skripts.
