(Yes, I'm ignoring the PowerBook here.) Wasn't the point of this patch to set it up so that uname -p outputs a string that gcc -march= or gcc -mcpu= can use? (Or whatever argument gcc uses to decide which CPU to optimize for now...) Or am I confusing this with an older uname hack patch that doesn't matter anymore? In any case, athlon-4 is a valid architecture string; "AMD Sempron(tm) 2800+" is not. Does this string have to be valid for gcc?
