 Hi,

 I'm actually trying to compile asterisk on DFBSD. It needs to compile
 with the compiler option -march=ix86, with x3 (gcc spec). But DFBSD
 uname -m is returning systematically i386. Is their a workaround for
 that, that would allow me to compile without hacking the autotools
 scripts?

You could set the environment variable UNAME_M to whatever you think would
work; I don't know if that would get picked up during the build process,
but it's worth a try.  I'm interested in seeing asterisk work.

How would this be different than jail(8)?

not understanding the 'without virtualization' part -
I know some form of HW virt a-la kvm has been discussed a few times -

do you mean like segmenting the 'machine' or somesuch?
