If you don't use an old i386 this `garbage' shouldn't matter at all.
If you don't want to have it, the proper fix belongs in autoconf.
It's used for these ./configure options, generated by the AC_ARG_PROGRAM
autoconf macro:
Program names:
--program-prefix=PREFIX prepend PREFIX to installed program names
--program-suffix=SUFFIX append SUFFIX to installed program names
--program-transform-name=PROGRAM run sed PROGRAM on installed program names
I know that at least the Fedora GRUB 2 packages uses this. So we just
can't remove that feature upstream. And I don't think it's worth to
diverge from upstream for this just to save a few CPU cycles.
