Well I do not know how important this chost variable is. ;-) But after some research I would say that "x86_64-pc-linux-gnu" would be corrent nowadays. And btw: do you know any x86_64 machine which is not a pc?
Is PC's definition personal computer? I know of some x86 boxes which aren't really "personal", but I think they're still called PCs. I think the x86 part of x86_64 therefore makes the same apply here. Yes, there are 64bit machines that aren't called PCs, but generally I think PC refers to Intel compatible machines. Dale
