Swift host tools compiled with wrong cpu on Apple Silicon

Host tools are being compiled for x86_64 cpu when compiling a target that uses them on an arm Mac, with an arm Bazel.

It works fine if we build the tool directly with --macos_cpus=arm64.

Tools written in C/C++ work fine.

I’m using a custom build for darwin arm64 at https://github.com/thii/bazel/tree/4.0.0-darwin_arm64 (based on 4.0.0rc2), so there’s a possibility that it’s a problem with my build.
