[MacPerl] how to check for machine architecture?

["Axel M. Roest" <axel@simplex.nl>]

I want my script to run semi-transparently under unix perl or MacPerl. What
is the preferred way to check on what kind of machine the script is running?
On unix I have $ENV variables to check, but what do I have on the Mac?

I thought about grepping the output of `pwd` for either : or /, but surely
there must be a better way?

TIA
