The environment variable OSTYPE has the value "linux-gnu" in single and multi user mode. This is surprising for a Hurd system, isn't it? (I am quite sure that it is The Hurd, not Linux :-). Older tar files had set OSTYPE=gnu. I believe that the OSTYPE is hardcoded in bash. I can imagine that it is set to linux-gnu when bash is being cross-compiled. Mark
