I used this:

----

# Get this computer's architecture (I686, Power Macintosh, etc.)
ARCH = $(shell uname -m | sed s/' '/''/ | tr '[a-z]' '[A-Z]')

CFLAGS = [...] -D$(ARCH) [...]

----


I was doing work on OS X and Linux, so we got LINUX and POWERMACINTOSH 
as #define'd constants. Not sure what uname -m will give for solaris, 
but probably something sensible across different versions, etc.
