PKGBUILDs/core/coreutils/coreutils-uname.patch

On linux platforms, grok /proc/cpuinfo for the CPU/vendor info.

Prob not suitable for upstream seeing as how it's 100% linux-specific
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-coreutils/2005-09/msg00063.html

Patch originally by Carlos E. Gorges <carlos@techlinux.com.br>, but 
heavily reworked to suck less.

To add support for additional platforms, check out the show_cpuinfo()
func in the linux/arch/<ARCH>/ source tree of the kernel.
