Re: try try again (waiting for the retraction/correction)

It doesn't properly report i586 CPU.  I haven't had a round tuit moment
to look into it myself.  Instead of i586 you get i686.

Well, you're not banned from the list (I don't ban people for blowing
off steam).

Since I'm going to be releasing 1.3.11 soon, I'm interested in knowing
of potential problems with uname.

If you could provide a summary of what's wrong with uname, I'll try to
fix it before the next release.

If this was just cockpit error, it would be useful to know that too,
since you are so adamant about claiming that uname is wrong.
