If you would be so kind I think that may be the cleanest solution.. 
Otherwise, I see two quick choices.

1) http://svn.mplayerhq.hu/mplayer/trunk/cpuinfo.c?view=markup

2) parse the output from psrinfo and isainfo

The problems
#1 we'll have to sync it from upstream
#2 the compiler then depends on those to be present..
