 amd64 vs i386:

 config::auto::arch just checks the perl5 config for the cpu type, esp. if
 32-bit or 64-bit is used.

 But it is easily possible to override that on the cmdline, and generate
 the wrong cpuarch then.

  * We could check for known arch overrides in ccflags/ldflags,
 like -m64, -m32 -Wl,-melf_x86_64 and such.
  * Or we could just check the ptr size with cc_build check in the compiler
 check and adjust the cpuarch later.

 e.g. On solaris 10 with a 32-bit perl I use:
 {{{
 --ccflags='-m64 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_TS_ER
 RNO' --ldflags='-m64' --linkflags='-m64'
 --ccflags='-m64 -D_LARGEFILE_SOURCE -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 -D_TS_ER
 RNO' --ldflags='-m64' --linkflags='-m64' --floatval='long double'
 }}}
