Research direction

Start by locating the code that invokes objdump and inspect how its executable or arguments are selected. Define how architecture prefixes are configured and toggled, then verify that the appropriate objdump variant is used for ARM and other supported architectures. The issue names no files or tests, so the relevant entry points and validation approach must be established first.
