there is a bug in GLib's IO channel stuff that keeps this from working properly.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=131076

we skip that portion of the test by a trick like this:

   if ($Config{archname} =~ m/^x86_64/) {

so now we just need to know what $Config{archname} contains on mips and mipsel
systems.
