Description:
In Mac OS X x86_64 builds, the version_compile_machine is incorrect:

localhost> show global variables like 'version%';
+-------------------------+------------------------------+
| Variable_name           | Value                        |
+-------------------------+------------------------------+
| version                 | 5.6.7-rc                     |
| version_comment         | MySQL Community Server (GPL) |
| version_compile_machine | i386                         |
| version_compile_os      | osx10.7                      |
+-------------------------+------------------------------+

How to repeat:
Install a 64-bit build on Mac OS X and check version_compile_machine.

Noted in 5.6.8, 5.7.0 changelogs.

On Mac OS X, the version_compile_machine system variable did not
include the value 64 for server binaries compiled on a 64-bit system.
