Yeah; but why not just a bunch of commands, some of which are expected
to work on any particular machine, and save the whole output as a single
string? It's not very clean, but should get the important details. To
support a "new machine," just add more commands to the script.
A simple version of this, based on your Mark 0, could be:
uname -a
$CC --version
$CC -V
$CC -v
ls -l /lib/libc.so*
No need to comment/uncomment anything.
