./config.guess: unable to guess system type
This script, last modified 2009-04-27, has failed to recognize
the operating system you are using. It is advised that you
download the most up to date version of the config scripts from

If the version you run (./config.guess) is already up to date, please

We see this every so often. You are trying to build on aarch64 with a
config.guess script that is older than aarch64.
Try `find . -name config.guess -o -name config.sub` to locate all copies
that the package has and then replace all of them with the current
versions downloaded as the message says.
Optionally, also contact whoever maintains the package that is giving
you trouble and ask them to update the config.guess and config.sub
scripts that they distribute.
