Older GCC's used config.{guess,sub} as expected.  Newer ones don't do a
full configure before the "make" stage.  Newer GCC versions do a minimal
configure step, and do the full-fledged config.{guess,sub} as part of the
"make" stage.  So our ports/Templates/ doesn't work as expected.  I
thought GCC started this with 3.3, but maybe it was 3.2.
