Use -p to see TARGET_ARCH . -a only shows TARGET. Compare the below:

# uname -a
FreeBSD FBSDG5L 13.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 13.0-CURRENT #4 r341766M: Sun Dec  9 13:46:38 PST 2018     markmi@FBSDFSSD:/usr/obj/powerpc64vtsc_xtoolchain-gcc/powerpc.powerpc64/usr/src/powerpc.powerpc64/sys/GENERIC64vtsc-NODBG  powerpc

vs hahvng -p showing powerpc64 as well:

# uname -ap
FreeBSD FBSDG5L 13.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 13.0-CURRENT #4 r341766M: Sun Dec  9 13:46:38 PST 2018     markmi@FBSDFSSD:/usr/obj/powerpc64vtsc_xtoolchain-gcc/powerpc.powerpc64/usr/src/powerpc.powerpc64/sys/GENERIC64vtsc-NODBG  powerpc powerpc64

I tend to use:

# uname -apKU
FreeBSD FBSDG5L 13.0-CURRENT FreeBSD 13.0-CURRENT #4 r341766M: Sun Dec  9 13:46:38 PST 2018     markmi@FBSDFSSD:/usr/obj/powerpc64vtsc_xtoolchain-gcc/powerpc.powerpc64/usr/src/powerpc.powerpc64/sys/GENERIC64vtsc-NODBG  powerpc powerpc64 1300004 1300004
