Hello, Nothing serious, but I'm just curious - why "uname -m" prints plain "pc" instead of CPU type which is more common on Linux? This would allow to use correct CPU type for host specification, e.g. i686-pc-msdosdjgpp instead of generic i386-pc-msdosdjgpp. Only one package I'm aware of that would be broken by changing "pc" to "i?86" is GNU Autoconf. However, it could be easily fixed. Bye, Laurynas Biveinis
