If you want to keep it simple, I could switch it to use uname instead of AC_CANONICAL_HOST(). It
will break cross-compiling but AFAICS the whole purpose of this script is to bootstrap make on
non-NetBSD systems, which is a very native-build oriented end, and I doubt cross-compiling was
ever intended to work here anyways.

Does that sound good?
