Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: coreutils
got bitten by build scripts using these; apparently on other
distributions they report something else than `unknown'. these configure
scripts make wrong assumptions:
-p, --processor
print the processor type or "unknown"
-i, --hardware-platform
print the hardware platform or "unknown"
Nevertheless for less surprises it would be useful to set these values
to something else than "unknown".
