      In .java_wrapper (SPARC) and almost all the tools/shell scripts
      (x86) the 'uname' utility is used, but only as `uname -p`,
      without the full path specified. Users with the GNU uname utility
      first in their PATH will get an error as it has no -p option, and
      is thereby unable to start the tools.
