K32 and K64. The fact is that arch/uname aren't the correct tools for
determing the answer to this particular question.
Granted that point, is it possible to build, or provide, a modified
version of uname, to be put in the tools or whatever suitable
directory, and that would override /usr/bin/uname with more sensible
data? Does it make sense?
No, but it's probably possible to get configure to correctly build a
triple by using other tools (like it has to do on solaris, for example).
It sounds like that's what Jack has done with his updated
configure.guess...
I would tend to agree with Toby, though, that this probably isn't
something that needs to be addressed by base/
