Comment (by barracuda156):

 Replying to [comment:4 ryandesign]:
 > Please report the issue to the developer of bmake. If they agree that's
 the fix, I'm happy to apply a patch. But I don't think that's the right
 general fix, since for 64-bit Intel it would change the result from
 "x86_64" to "i386". I don't know why this build system is trying to infer
 anything based on output from `uname`; that's probably a faulty design.

 Well, I opened the issue there, but no one responded so far:
 https://github.com/arichardson/bmake/issues/5

 I propose to make this fix conditional on PowerPC: then it cannot possibly
 affect anything else.
