The architecture is called x86-64. Since config.guess/config.sub will not accept a minus, we had to use x86_64 for config.guess and that's how this crept in. So in general, the name should be x86-64. For GCC all the patches are done to the i386 files and there's no x86-64 file at all. Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger SuSE Labs aj@suse.de private aj@arthur.inka.de http://www.suse.de/~aj
