Done with

    2001-06-04  Phil Edwards  <pme@sources.redhat.com>

        * config.guess:  Import CVS version 1.194.  All gcc-local changes
        appear to also be in the master copy.
        * config.sub:  Import CVS version 1.211.

on trunk and branch.  However, the config.guess version might ought to be
downgraded one revision on the branch.  The 193 -> 194 revision has this
log entry:

    * A daring, but much needed change to clean up some of this mess.
    2001-06-01  Ben Elliston  <bje@redhat.com>

    * config.guess (i*86:Linux:*:*): Examine the list of supported
        targets, not the list of supported emulations when capturing
        the output of "ld --help".  This causes problems on systems
        where GNU ld is built with support for all targets. Adjust
        cases in the switch accordingly.

        * config.guess: Other small Linux cleanups. Remove unnecessary
        logic for setting $VENDOR, since UNAME_MACHINE will always be
        i*86 in this case.

which maybe shouldn't be in 3.0.  The change previous to this was in April.
