>Originator:     Peter Schmiedeskamp
>Release:        AIX 5.3
>Organization:
n/a
>Environment:
AIX sv007 3 5 000000000000
>Description:
Because AIX's uname returns machine specific code, pkgsrc generates packages 
that are specific to the individual machine.  This is problematic if you want 
to build packages on one machine and then install the binary packages on 
another (perhaps even identical) machine.
>How-To-Repeat:
Build any binary package on AIX and attempt to install on any other AIX machine.
>Fix:
Index: machine.sh
