what if I'm specifying --host because for some reason I
don't like the string that config.guess comes up with?
for instance, I'm building on a sparc-sun-solaris2.5.1 but I
happen to know that it will work on sparc-sun-solaris2.5 as
well, so I'd rather use that string as --host.
I guess we are now suggesting that you use --build instead, and let
the defaults handle it. ($build used to default to $host; now $host
will default to $build).
That's an interesting point, though.
