The config.guess and config.sub scripts are too old for the ppc64
architecture.

When building 'abook' on ppc64, I get the following error:

uname -r = 2.6.10-1-ppc64
uname -s = Linux
uname -v = #1 SMP Sat Feb 12 12:25:34 CET 2005

/usr/bin/uname -p =

/usr/bin/oslevel       = 
/usr/convex/getsysinfo = 

UNAME_MACHINE = ppc64
UNAME_RELEASE = 2.6.10-1-ppc64
UNAME_SYSTEM  = Linux
UNAME_VERSION = #1 SMP Sat Feb 12 12:25:34 CET 2005
configure: error: cannot guess build type; you must specify one
make: *** [build-stamp] Error 1

With the attached patch 'abook' can be compiled on ppc64.
