Won't this also cause desktop Linux builds to use the simulator?

Good point. I have switched this to a target_os check

+    # For precompilation, we need to set the target architecture when we
+    # compile the snapshotter on the host. If no instruction buffer is created
+    # on the host, this argument is of no consequence.
+    defines += ["TARGET_ARCH_ARM64"]
+  }
   if (dart_debug) {
     defines += ["DEBUG"]
   } else {
     defines += ["NDEBUG"]
   }
