36     It uses the same technique in ndk/build/core/ndk-common.sh.
37     Here are comments from there:
38
39  ## On Linux or Darwin, a 64-bit kernel (*) doesn't mean that the user-land
40  ## is always 32-bit, so use "file" to determine the bitness of the shell
41  ## that invoked us. The -L option is used to de-reference symlinks.
42  ##
43  ## Note that on Darwin, a single executable can contain both x86 and
44  ## x86_64 machine code, so just look for x86_64 (darwin) or x86-64 (Linux)
45  ## in the output.
46
47    (*) ie. The following code doesn't always work:
48        struct utsname u;
49        int host_runs_64bit_OS = (uname(&u) == 0 && strcmp(u.machine, "x86_64") == 0);
50  */
51    return system("file -L \"$SHELL\" | grep -q \"x86[_-]64\"") == 0 ? 64 : 32;
52#endif // !_WIN32
