Revision 1850 updated config.guess and config.sub with the latest
versions.  Please check whether "sh config.guess" works, what it outputs
and what config.sub does it.  That is, if "sh config.guess" outputs
i686-unknown-linux, please try "sh config.sub i686-unknown-linux"

The error message is about the build type, i.e. the machine you are
building for.  "target" describes the machine that GRUB will boot.

There is nothing wrong with you.  Testing the latest version is useful
for the project.
