I had checked and the new automake was shipped with versions imported
from http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/config/config.  Since the
versions on the ftp.gnu.org site are still from June, it appears that
 
the savannah site has become the new canonical repository for
config.{guess,sub}.

Ben, is that latter sentence true?  If so, I suppose I can also update
the codingconventions accordingly.
