When I run machtype -d as root on my machine, the only output is
"XFree86 4.3.0"; X -showconfig does not seem to output anything
else relevant to the machtype query. Rather than hack a way to
avoid setuid privilege problems, my vote would be to try to find
a way to change machtype to give more useful information.
