This is the chost determined by configure, so I would guess it is right. However, I do not know much about how that works, so you may want to read up on it more if you think it is wrong.
Well, other distros are using x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (e.g.: http://gentoo-wiki.com/Safe_Cflags#Athlon_64_.28AMD.29) So I think the current chost is wrong.
No one is questioning what is correct. The problem is that the autotooled configure script is what generates this value. Not us. if you look at the configure.ac script, it does: CHOST="$host"
The host variable comes from configure.
If you have the time, please look into AC_CANONICAL_HOST, which is the standard for determining the host type. In addition, try downloading the most recent config.guess at <http://cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewcvs/*checkout*/config/config/config.guess> and seeing what that produces for you. We may be using an outdated one pulled from somewhere on the system. -Dan
