Hi

I digged a little into and this is the old "uname -m"-decease.

Outlines of the fix:
- Remove uname -m usage from configure, use the host_* variables always.
- Export this values somehow, use them in jprt.config and other
  makefiles in the tree. How is this done for the gcc value?
- Call configure with appropriate --build (and --host in case of cross
  building) arguments from debian/rules.
