Comment (by ryandesign):
Replying to [comment:5 barracuda156]:
> I propose to make this fix conditional on PowerPC: then it cannot
possibly affect anything else.
My point is, if `uname -m` was wrong, `uname -p` isn't any more right.
What information is the build system trying to determine by running
`uname`? I can almost guarantee that `uname` is not the right tool for the
job. `uname` tells you what machine you're building on. It doesn't tell
you what machine you're building for. (Consider what would happen when
building for i386 on PowerPC, or for ppc on Intel.)
