hg mv config.sub autoconf-config.sub
hg cp config.guess config.sub
and then fix config.sub so that it runs autoconf-config.sub and modifies
the output to what you expect it to be from config.sub when running on
this particular platform. Or do some other suitable workaround for
config.sub. Perhaps it's easier to modify the input parameters rather
than the output string, as we did for config.guess.
