That's really great that you have it all figured out. However, there
are people who actually use config.guess for it's intended purpose -
as an installation/configuration aid. Given that purpose, why is it
so hard for you to understand that:
*-redhat-linux
*-suse-linux
*-debian-linux
*-caldera-linux
etc
is far more useful than
*-gnu-linux
What's so darned hard about following that logic?
