    FBSD: Handle amd64 in host triplet
    
    In ostype.m4 and sysname.m4, we detect amd64 FreeBSD by matching $host
    against "x86_64-*-freebsd*". On FreeBSD, `uname -p` on these systems
    prints "amd64", but the config.guess from the GNU config project (that
    is, <https://savannah.gnu.org/projects/config/>) translates amd64 into
    x86_64 for FreeBSD, and has for a very long time.
    
    For whatever (historical) reasons, anything built from FreeBSD ports
    uses a version of the config.guess script that has FreeBSD-specific
    modifications (which lives in /usr/ports/Templates/config.guess). This
    version does not translate amd64 into x86_64, and so our $host looks
    like, for example:
    
        $ sh /usr/ports/Templates/config.guess
        amd64-unknown-freebsd12.3
    
    If regen.sh is run on a FreeBSD host, we pull our config.guess from
    libtool, which normally is built from FreeBSD ports, and so results in
    a host triplet with "amd64" for amd64 hosts. And so the build breaks
    early on, because we don't recognize that we're on FreeBSD.
    
    To accommodate this, match our amd64 FreeBSD host triplets against
    amd64 or x86_64, so we can build using a config.guess from FreeBSD or
    GNU upstream.
