Hello,

Please find attached a fix for config.guess, which fixes the detection of powerpc64 on Darwin (Mac OS X). The patch is against commit dc4eaab in git://git.savannah.gnu.org/automake.git. Explanation:

On Darwin (OS X) `uname -p' returns powerpc even if the CPU and OS are 64-bit-capable. This problem has been already observed and resolved for the x86 platform.

The same fix works on the powerpc platform. I observed the bug in GNU automake 1.13.1.

Best regards,

Torsten Maehne
