"config.sub" is apparently copied in by "automake -add-missing", so the
version of "config.sub" you get presumably comes from the version of
automake the person building the release tarballs has installed on the
machine on which the tarballs were built.

Currently, "config.guess" is part of the CVS tarball, so it can,
presumably, be made to be the latest version regardless of what the
machine building the release tarballs has installed.

I don't know why we do one thing for "config.sub" and another thing for
"config.guess".
