[issue1496032] test_float segfaults with SIGFPE on FreeBSD 6.0 / Alpha

I think `uname -m` will be equal to "alpha" in this case.  There are
several uses of `uname -m` in configure.in.  You might need to add a
new section.  It might also be possible to clean up various special
cases to make a generic `uname -m` section.  I didn't look too closely
though.

-m is the machine type

BTW, -m works on Tru64.  I also tested on Ubuntu and it reported
x86_64, on Debian it reported sparc.  On OSX.4, it reported "Power
Macintosh".
