Ok, but remember, config.guess returns the string with ${UNAME_RELEASE}
at the end for many of OS-es (i.e. *BSD, SunOS, HP-UX). I think we 
should agree with this standard, as far as it isn't reasonable to change
archtable with new release of such OS.

Also, at this time I had to make a wrapper for gcc:

#!/bin/sh
case "$1" in
  --print-libgcc-file-name) 
    echo /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-freebsd/0.0.0/libgcc.a;;
  *)
    exec /usr/bin/gcc.real $*
esac

Ok, I understand I have broken OS, but I don't cross compile my packages.
I just need to fallback to default achitecture.

Thanks,
