severity 289688 important
retitle 289688 newlib: FTBFS: Does not support all arches.
thanks

Since it does seem to build on i386, and atleast tried on hppa,
this isn't an RC bug.

I thought it was a more general problem since all other arches
(ia64, alpha, powerpc, m68k) that tried to build it so far had
the same problem.

You really should be using the the --build configure option, see
/usr/share/doc/autotools-dev/README.Debian.gz

On amd64 config.guess returns x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu,
but you shouldn't be using that.
