OS X returns 'i386' for 'uname -p' deliberately.  I don't have a link handy, but when doing the 64 bit transition years ago, Apple tried to change it to x86_64 but way too many things broke, expecting the broad family type (ex: ppc, arm, intel).  Perhaps 'uname -m' is more to your liking...

Cheers,
