Is there a good reason that Automake renames the three variables set by
AC_CANONICAL_* ('build', 'host', & 'target') to 'build_triplet', 'host_triplet',
& 'target_triplet'?
Because using the current traces design, 'build', 'host', & 'target' would be
substituted automatically, allowing removal/simplification of some code once AC
2.13 is no longer supported, if the rename was unnecessary. This would include
removal of the following FIXME comment and associated code:
# Generate some useful variables when AC_CANONICAL_* used. FIXME:
# this should use generic %configure_vars method.
