The checkstack script wouldn't work because it was picking up the
newline on the end of the output of uname -m.

Also, use a standard perl construct to print error message and
exit with non-zero error code.

a space before the variable would be good, maybe qq() instead of "" to avoid 
backslashing? Also the \n is reduntant there, otherwise you will loose the 
file+line info.
