Hi,

on x86_64cpus (i386 and amd64 debian) expect complains about not knowing
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu. Updating config.sub/guess solves that problem. You
might also want to pass --host=$(DEB_BUILD_HOST) so it builds for i386
under i386 debian even on x86_64 cpus.

The attached patch uses autotools-dev to use allways current config.sub/guess
files.
