Seems reasonable. Apple had Mac OS X running on x86 as a "sanity check" for half a decade before releasing x86 hardware.
If you have the time to compile the entire OS for every CPU you have, it would be interesting to see how much the performance of your benchmarked applications changes. It otherwise seems like a waste of time, unless you have a way to automate it all and don't mind waiting.
