[m-dev.] Out of date config.sub and config.guess

Hi...

The files config.sub and config.guess in the mercury CVS repository are 
archaic and need an update to work correctly with some of the more oddball 
architectures that are out there.

The versions in cvs behave like this:
peterh at merulo:~/mercury-0.11.0.rotd.20040511/build/mercury$ ./config.guess 
--version
GNU config.guess (2001-03-30)
...
peterh at merulo:~/mercury-0.11.0.rotd.20040511/build/mercury$ ./config.guess
ia64-unknown-linux

A more modern version does this:
peterh at merulo:~/mercury-0.11.0.rotd.20040511/build/mercury$ /usr/share/misc/config.guess 
--version
GNU config.guess (2004-03-12)
...
peterh at merulo:~/mercury-0.11.0.rotd.20040511/build/mercury$ /usr/share/misc/config.guess
ia64-unknown-linux-gnu

(note the fourth part of the system type string)

Could you please update config.sub and config.guess in cvs?

Thanks,
Peter
