Can you tell me what cat /proc/cpuinfo says? We should at least
establish that it is a Core machine.

I believe our cpuid.c is where core-* gets returned. And looking at
past versions of MPIR, this has never been handled by configure, so it
is definitely a bug.

The only case that has been handled in the past is core-apple-*.
