+ This option makes some tools behave like they do on Fedora.

+ At the time of this writing (2017-08) this only affects uname:
+ normally, uname -p (processor) and uname -i (platform)
+ are shown as "unknown", but with this option uname -p
+ shows the same string as uname -m (machine type),
+ and so does uname -i unless machine type is i486/i586/i686 -
+ then uname -i shows "i386".
