To the best of my understanding, the Fujitsu SPARC VIIIfx is
V9-compatible. An original Linux would report "sparc64". The Linux
kernel source tree does not contain any instances of "s64fx".
You seem to be running a non-standard modification. I do not
believe modifying the uname machine type is even required. Linux never 
distinguished between sun4[cdm] or sun4[uv].

Without further discussion also involving the Linux SPARC maintainer, I 
do not think config.guess should start recognizing this yet.
Otherwise, we might just as well add the platform types "amd64" and 
"x64" and "enoughbitsalready". Not.
Thoughts?
