Contains the Intel type, where applicable. Allegro defines the following CPU family types: 
    CPU_FAMILY_UNKNOWN  - The type of processor is unknown
    CPU_FAMILY_I386     - The processor is an Intel-compatible 386
    CPU_FAMILY_I486     - The processor is an Intel-compatible 486
    CPU_FAMILY_I586     - The processor is a Pentium or equivalent
    CPU_FAMILY_I686     - The processor is a Pentium Pro, II, III
                          or equivalent
    CPU_FAMILY_ITANIUM  - The processor is an Itanium processor
    CPU_FAMILY_POWERPC  - The processor is a PowerPC processor
    CPU_FAMILY_EXTENDED - The processor type needs to be read
                          from the cpu_model
You can read this variable after you have called check_cpu() (which is automatically called by allegro_init()).
