请问关于HOSTTYPE与MACHTYPE

faxian

我的系统(debian)里是这样的:
HOSTTYPE=i486
MACHTYPE=i486-pc-linux-gnu
我的cpu是p III.
这两个变量是安装系统时默认的?大家的也是这样吗?
这表示debian库的软件默认是对486优化的吗?
如果改成i686会有什么影响?比如编译内核?
我发现相关的程序是gcc和libc6.
下面是dpkg -S i486-pc-linux-gnu的结果:

这时bash man中的解释:
HOSTTYPE
Automatically set to a string that uniquely describes the type
of machine on which bash is executing. The default is system-
dependent.
MACHTYPE
Automatically set to a string that fully describes the system
type on which bash is executing, in the standard GNU cpu-com-
pany-system format. The default is system-dependent.
这里说是自动设定的,那么根据什么设的?自己不能改吗?

在我的系统里这两个还不是环境变量.
