One more question for the other two FreeBSD-ers: we now have i*86) platform="freebsd" ;; x86_64) platform="freebsd" ;; amd64) platform="freebsd-amd64" ;; Where does x86_64 belong? To the first or to the second group?
The term x86_64 is a synonym for amd64. It is common in the linux world, but not used for FreeBSD. Here are all potential platforms supported by FreeBSD:
Thanks for the list. Just one question: I have found the thread mentioned below. What does x86_64 do there? I have some faint memories that Yue has been complaining that "if architecture == x86_64" was returning true on FreeBSD, but I may be wrong. I can delete x86_64 or just make it a synonym for amd64.
