Details:

I was using ax_gcc_archflag.m4 and  ax_ext.m4 on a 64-bit FreeBSD system using
GNUC (and clang). The $cpu_host variable in that environment uses a string of
'amd64'. Any cpu_host that starts with amd64 should be compatible for purposes
of cpuinfo usage as it is equivalent with x86_64. No such check is done in
these two macros.

64bit FreeBSD returned on my system:

host_cpu='amd64'
host_os='freebsd8.2'
host_vendor='unknown'

See attached patches
