      Description

        After updating cygwin to the latest version, I get a different for uname -m than before which breaks configure.

        See:

        $ cygcheck -V
        cygcheck (cygwin) 3.3.6

        $ uname -m
        x86_64

        Versus

        $ cygcheck -V
        cygcheck (cygwin) 3.4.1

        $ uname -m
        .x86_64

        Update: It has been fixed in the subsequent version of cygwin:

        $ cygcheck -V
        cygcheck (cygwin) 3.4.2
