Good point, how about this?
cur_v=`echo "$timestamp" | sed s/-//g`
for path in \
"$HOME/.config/automake" \
/usr/local/share/automake \
/usr/share/automake \
/usr/share/misc \
; do
if test -x "$path/config.guess" ; then
v=`"$path/config.guess" --time-stamp | sed s/-//g`
if test "$v" -gt "$cur_v" ; then
cur_v="$v"
latest="$path"
fi
fi
done
if test "x$latest" != x ; then
case $# in
0) "$latest/config.guess";;
*) "$latest/config.guess" "$@";;
esac
exit $?
