Weird hu? Originally I had the whole shebang in arm64 because the x86 
(or whatever) bindings have not been written. My assumption is that once 
that part had been provided it could be moved.

The config is sort of an artifact and "easier" to move than the whole 
file. But, as Hanjun has also been complaining about it I've agreed to 
move it to the "correct" location but keep it in the arm64 wrapper. Of 
course I think that is a bit strange too, but whatever...

Once the arm64 side of things are all wrapped up (and I can come up for 
some air) I willing to help with bindings on other architectures if 
anyone is truly interested.  But, I view that whole exercise as more a 
"bug" fixing one than providing any real benefit at this point.
