Heterogeneous series environments

[David Cheney]

This sounds like a terrible idea. I think, until we can demonstrate a 
serious business case, series should be an invariant within an environment.

Some business cases which I think don't qualify are 'I want to use 
series G, but there isn't a charm for it' <- port the charm.

I think we will have to support different architectures on the same 
series; amd64, 386, arm.

Cheers
