Speaking of autotools-dev, that package seems somewhat outdated.
Upstream config.{sub,guess} is newer than what's in autotools-dev, for
example, and the /usr/share/doc/autotools-dev/README.Debian.gz
documentation does not accurately describe modern autotools.
I don't think overriding config.{sub,guess} in debian packaging is the
right solution without forwarding the problem report upstream. It is
not a debian specific problem.
