please support more architectures
---------------------------------

                 Key: DAEMON-91
                 URL: http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DAEMON-91
             Project: Commons Daemon
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: Nightly Builds
         Environment: Linux (arm, hppa, m68k, mips, mipsel, s390, ia64)
            Reporter: Marcus Better


The CPU detection in src/native/unix/support/apsupport.m4 is broken. Based on the \
$host_cpu variable, it tries to guess the operating system. This is completely wrong \
since several operating systems can run on the same architecture.

For Debian GNU/Linux we had to apply the following patch. In general, the best would \
be to let autoconf determine the CPU type and not touch it at all, except in \
exceptional cases.
