This has come up before on the config-patches list[1]. config.guess's job is not to tell you what you are compiling for, but what the system type is.

(This is >not the case and I consider this a bug in config.guess, actually.) is not going to change the output of config.guess, and is not meant to. _______________________________________________ config-patches mailing list config-patches@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/config-patches
