Maybe I have an overly long memory, but I remember when the FSF let
politics intrude by making changes to config.guess to promote the
GNU/Linux name, which had the affect of breaking packages that blindly
trusted that you could always update config.guess. That plus the fact
that I don't trust changes to autoconf not to randomly cause breakage,
is why I ship upstream e2fsprogs sources with a generated configure
and shiped config.guess/config.sub that I can personally test to be
sane.
I've already updated the upstream e2fsprogs sources to have an updated
version of config.guess and config.sub to support ppc64el. It will be
in the soon-to-be-released e2fsprogs 1.42.10.
