Re: Sync config.[guess|sub] from FSF GCC mainline

 This part looks like a regression to me, breaking character translation 
intended (single-argument `tr' without `-d' is I believe also not 
universally defined):

-- see the `tr' invocation at the end.  I spotted it by chance by reading 
the patch and I take it it is an accident which happened while doing a 
mechanical clean-up.

 Would you therefore please look into it and see if my suspicion is right?

 Thanks,
