Hi,

I've fixed exporting $_arch variable to shell.

We can use $_arch in configure.sh and so on ...  that variable is filled up
with valid contain now.

For 32bit on both platorm  $_arch=""  is null (at this time in dude). I
think that should be worth to do something like this:  on 32bit x86 >
$_arch="x86"  on 32bit sparc > $_arch="sparc"  (I have it my local copy and
after few test I'll push it to dude)

For 64bit on Intels, Amd  $_arch="amd64"  on sparc $_arch="sparcv9"


We have two useful variables:

$_arch < described above
$_libsuffix ... as same as $_arch but with slash before.    It's only for
64bit, for 32bit will be always empty.  For amd64 .... $_libsuffix="/amd64"
for sparcv9 ..... $_libsuffix="/sparcv9"


This is not useful for determine features of target CPU, this is just for
handling x86 or sparc stuff in shell scripts like configure.sh nothing more.
I don't like hardcoded paths, so these variables should be helpful to
eliminate hardcode paths as much as possible.

Have a nice day
