[SOLVED] Source Architectures Arrays not recognized by makepkg

Question

Hello,
I am in the process of updating my PKGBUILD's in order to migrate them to AUR4.
As suggested here, one should rework a PKGBUILD in order to not use bash conditionals regarding source architecture selection.
On my system (x86_64 architecture) - after reworking my package PKGBUILD script - on issuing 'makepkg --source' the system does not take into account neither the source_x86_64 or md5sums_x86_64 arrays; the i686 source/md5sums arrays are always selected:
# Maintainer: Frontier (frontier314 at gmail dot com)
pkgname=jaspersoftstudio
_pkgname=JaspersoftStudio
_binname="Jaspersoft Studio"
pkgver=6.1.0
pkgrel=1
pkgdesc="Eclipse based Jasper Reports generator"
arch=('i686' 'x86_64')
url="http://community.jaspersoft.com/project/jaspersoft-studio"
license=('Eclipse')
depends=('java-runtime' 'gtk2')
source_x86_64=("http://sourceforge.net/projects/jasperstudio/files/JaspersoftStudio-${pkgver}/TIBCOJaspersoftStudio-${pkgver}.final-linux-x86_64.tgz")
source=("http://sourceforge.net/projects/jasperstudio/files/JaspersoftStudio-${pkgver}/TIBCOJaspersoftStudio-${pkgver}.final-linux-x86.tgz")
md5sums_x86_64=('01e1da5e396a07b82dbc0cd20be437de')
md5sums=('2e6710b79c96f2f21880640fe8176048')

ln -sf "/opt/${_pkgname}/${_binname}" ${pkgdir}/usr/bin/${_pkgname}
ln -sf "/opt/${_pkgname}/${_binname}" ${pkgdir}/usr/bin/${pkgname}

EoF
install -D -m 0644 ${srcdir}/${_pkgname}.desktop ${pkgdir}/usr/share/applications/${_pkgname}.desktop
Both makepkg.conf and pacman.conf have the correct architecture setting (snippets):
makepkg.conf
# ARCHITECTURE, COMPILE FLAGS
CARCH="x86_64"
CHOST="x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu"
pacman.conf
Architecture = x86_64
Can someone explain to me what I am doing wrong here?
Many thanks in advance.

Nothing more than Raynman and WorMzy suggested; using architecture-specific source arrays.
The updated PKGBUILD:

Now, when you say
on issuing 'makepkg --source' the system does not take into account neither the source_x86_64 or md5sums_x86_64 arrays
What exactly do you mean? Where are you looking to see if it's taken into account?
On the previous version of the PKGBUILD (still available on the "old" AUR3.5), I've used bash conditionals to check for the correct binary package download:
# Maintainer: Frontier (frontier314 at gmail dot com)

_binname="Jaspersoft Studio"

url="http://community.jaspersoft.com/project/jaspersoft-studio"

depends=('java-runtime' 'gtk2')
if [ "$CARCH" = "i686" ]; then
source=("http://sourceforge.net/projects/jasperstudio/files/JaspersoftStudio-${pkgver}/TIBCOJaspersoftStudio-${pkgver}.final-linux-x86.tgz")
md5sums=('2e6710b79c96f2f21880640fe8176048')
fi
if [ "$CARCH" = "x86_64" ]; then

Testing THIS PKGBUILD with namcap produces no warnings, where testing the updated PKGBUILD produces warnings for the source_* arrays (probably namcap isn't updated to 'understand' architecture array strings).
Also with the old PKGBUILD when issuing makepkg --source, due to the bash conditionals, one could 'see' (from the shell messages) that the correct source package was downloaded. Now, when issuing the same command on the new PKGBUILD it downloads the i686 source always; however, issuing makepkg (without --source) downloads the correct source (in my case x86_64).
