IMHO this shouldn't be changed. AMD64 is historically a synonymous for any 64-bit architecture.
This is a common terminology, on Windows it's a standard keyword, on some Linux distros (fe
Gentoo) as well.
Thanks.

To change it would be a considerable BC break though, http://lxr.php.net/xref/PHP_TRUNK/ext/standard/info.c#php_get_windows_cpu
has been like that for a long time.
Not sure what is the best thing to do, it would be nice if they were consistent with each other, but
I don't see a good way to actually do it.

I believe it should return x86_64 - like it does on Linux:
php -r 'echo php_uname("m");'
x86_64

SYSTEM_INFO structure
PROCESSOR_ARCHITECTURE_AMD64 stands for x64 (AMD or Intel)
I suggest that instead of reporting "AMD64" PHP_uname('m') would report
"x64".

Description:
------------
PHP_uname('m') gives wrong machine type.
In my case, processor is Intel Pentium 4, but PHP_uname('m')gives AMD64.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
echo php_uname('m');
?>
