Re: Suggestion for the GCS

      Also, people have been asking that the chain of defaulting
    be

            target ?= host ?= build ?= `config.guess`

It is a good idea to specify the order of defaulting.

    conflicts in the dark corners, we also strongly discourage the support
    of

            ./configure MACHTYPE

This is the normal recommended way to invoke configure.
We will not desupport that, or even discourage it.
It should simply be equivalent to ./configure --build=MACHTYPE.

      Finally, another
    significant difference is that now accepting --target is mandated.

Ok, I guess.

Can you adjust the diffs so that ./configure MACHTYPE is still
supported and is equivalent to ./configure --build=MACHTYPE?
