Can you do a cvs update on the sources and try running ./config.guess
in the root directory? We just added it to CVS, so we are not using a
version from 2005 or earlier anymore. Make sure you are using the CVS
copy and not one that was locally created (grep "^timestamp"
config.guess, you should see a date in 2007). Let us know what this
spits out.
