Comment:

 Just to make it clear, on any Solaris 10 or !OpenSolaris machine, with an
 Intel/AMD processor, the output of {{{uname -m}}} is the same:

  * On my Sun Ultra 27 running !OpenSolaris
 {{{
 drkir...@hawk:~$ uname -m
 i86pc
 drkir...@hawk:~$ uname -sm
 SunOS i86pc
 drkir...@hawk:~$ uname -rsm
 SunOS 5.11 i86pc
 drkir...@hawk:~$
 }}}
  * On fulvia on skynet:
 {{{
 64 drkir...@fulvia:[~] $ uname -m
 i86pc
 64 drkir...@fulvia:[~] $ uname -sm
 SunOS i86pc
 64 drkir...@fulvia:[~] $ uname -rsm
 SunOS 5.10 i86pc
 }}}

 One can differentiate Solaris 10 and Solaris 11 machines by using the
 release version of the operating system (Solaris 10 shows 5.10, and
 !OpenSolaris shows 5.11).

 Since I now wish to disable the assembly code on both Solaris 10 and
 Solaris 11, the option which shows the release ({{{-r}}}) needs removing.

 I'm choosing not to use the {{{-p}}} option to {{{uname}}}, as it's not
 portable.

 The only portable options to uname are {{{-a, -m, -n, -r}}} and {{{-v}}}.
