That can't be right.
" cpu
The type of processor used on the system. (...)
manufacturer
A somewhat freeform field which indicates the manufacturer of the system. (...)"
It's manufacturer of the system, not of the CPU.
Note "used on the system", therefore cpu != system. And "system"
is really a broad term. AFAIK, it's really a freeform field in
practice, so you should be able to put anything there. For example,
if one takes xilink's toolchain sources (the gpl bits), fork / patch
them for some reason, and build / distribute them oneself, one
might want to legitimately change the manufacturer field to
avoid confusion.
