+ Override tools' versions of config.guess and config.sub with the ones
+ from crosstool-NG. This means that all instances of config.guess and
+ config.sub in gcc, binutils, glibc, etc... will be replaced.
+
+ Most of the time, the versions of those scripts found in packages are old
+ versions, thus lacking some target definitions. This is the case for
+ uClibc-based tuples in old versions of gcc and gdb, for example.
+
+ Also, doing so will guarantee that all components have the same tuples
+ definitions for your target, and not diverging ones.
+
+ You can update the ones provided with crosstool-NG by first running:
+ ct-ng updatetools
+ in the directory where you want to run crosstool-NG prior to the build.
