This only works under hpux 11.  See config.guess.  It sets the machine
string to the following:

	hppa2.0n	32-bit host kernel
	hppa2.0w	64-bit host kernel
	hppa2.0		HP-UX 10.20 host kernel

I believe that 10.20 only supported narrow PA 2.0 kernels.  So, I am
not sure that the distinction between hppa2.0 and hppa2.0n is useful.

If config.guess finds a 64-bit kernel, it checks CC to see if it
generates code for the 64-bit runtime and sets the machine string
to hppa64 if it does.
