MACHINE may be insufficient in cases where we have multiple possible
ABIs?  Like mipsel o32 vs. n32 vs. eabi?  Similar problems on ARM (and
nowadays with i386 vs. x32?).  Didn't even know of MACHINE, we should
mention it in the assembler code chapter of the manual (ha, finally
inline assembler being usable in "production-code" Gforth programs!).

Just tried MACHINE TYPE on mipsel oabi32: just outputs "mips".  Looked
it up, this is generated from configure via config.status substituting
stuff in envos.fs.in.  It doesn't seem that config.status knows any
helpful CPU architecture details.  Maybe we'll have to do it the hard
way and check for MIPS_* #defines during configure (or compile-time) and
somehow export this information (depending on architecture) to Gforth.
