An alternative would be to re-run autoconf, but this might
require running other autotools as well (aclocal, automake, etc.),
so your current solution is fine, too.

However, the output of config.guess should be better escaped
so that it won't do any harm in case it has a bug and produces
unexpected output.

Gregory, are there any other issues we should consider
