The original SPEC named it x86-64. Since configure treats a "-" as a separation character, we could not have uname return x86-64 and therefore used "x86_64". Later AMD renamed "x86-64" to "AMD64"
So, the correct historical usage is "x86-64" but uname/configure use "x86_64", Andreas -- Andreas Jaeger, [EMAIL PROTECTED], http://www.suse.de/~aj/ SUSE Linux Products GmbH, Maxfeldstr. 5, 90409 Nürnberg, Germany GPG fingerprint = 93A3 365E CE47 B889 DF7F FED1 389A 563C C272 A126
