problem for UltraSPARC-IIi

I use Solaris 10 on an UltraSPARC-IIi machine. The configure 
script of libffi-3.0.13 recognizes the cpu to ultrasparc3, but it
is not correct because "UltraSPARC-IIi" should be identified as 
ultrasparc (IIi is not III). The following patch may fix the 
problem.

Thanks!  The file to fix here is actually m4/ax_gcc_archflag.m4, which
comes from the upstream autoconf-archive project.  I've made the
change here and rebuilt configure.  I've also reported the bug along
with your patch to the autoconf-archive project.
