I think I'm done for this review pass. Please CC me on your next
version.

I've run a quick test on my ARM64 Debian Jessie box which predictably
failed. It looks like this is a docker hub issue for one thing as:

  docker pull debian:stable

creates an x86_64 image on the arm64 box which predictably fails. I
suspect the only solution is going to be storing our own built images on
the docker hub and tweaking the tooling to take host architecture into
account.

Do you have any non-x86 boxes to test against or are you going to need
some help with non-x86 support?

Cheers,
