in thread for loop ?
That's not entirely true. You can compile Perl for Linux/ia32 and run it on Linux/amd64. %Config won't tell you that. You can compile Perl for HP/PA-RISC and run it on HP/ia64 (though that's not what the OP is doing). %Config won't tell you that, either.
Yes, been there, done that. Though I'd still prefer POSIX::uname over `uname`.
