I've just noticed that the official documentation is quite
vague about the correct procedure to use.
(http://gcc.gnu.org/codingconventions.html#upstream).

According to http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2001-05/msg00636.html ,
I've checked out the HEAD revisions of config.sub and
config.guess and I'm going to do this:

 $ cd <config_stuff_to_import>
 $ cvs -d :ext:bernie@gcc.gnu.org:/cvs/gcc import \
      gcc SUBVERSION config-2003-06-13
 $ cd <gcc_sandbox>
 $ cvs admin -bSUBVERSION config.sub config.guess


It looks like nobody had ever used this procedure before,
otherwise there would be a SUBVERSION branch tag on
config.sub and several import tags, wouldn't it?

I'm confused... :-/

I wasn't planning to import those anyway... :-)
