OK.  I'm not sure how to fix this one.  We'll have to look in to it.

Appears that much like the recent sparc problem, arm is not defined,
but __arm__ is:

  (base)address@hidden:~$ grep Processor /proc/cpuinfo
  Processor       : StrongARM-110 rev 3 (v4l)
  (base)address@hidden:~$ gcc -E -dM - < /dev/null
  #define __linux__ 1 
  #define __ARM_ARCH_3__ 1 
  #define __arm__ 1 
  #define linux 1 
  #define __GNUC_MINOR__ 95 
  #define __CHAR_UNSIGNED__ 1 
  #define __unix 1 
  #define __unix__ 1 
  #define __APCS_32__ 1 
  #define __GNUC__ 2 
  #define __linux 1 
  #define __ELF__ 1 
  #define unix 1 

I've fixed this one in the 1.6 and 1.7 CVS trees.  The fix will show
up in Debian with the next set of packages.

Thanks
