: So, you being the person who attempted to write cpp with sed, what
: comparison does "amd64 == sun3" actually result in?  What about
: "i386 == sun3" (the former returned true, the latter didn't).

On i386, that's true.  amd64 expands to '0', as does sun3.  This makes
the first one true.  The second one, i386 expands to '1', so the
second one would be false.
