I don't understand what you mean here.  configure is one thing,
config.guess is another.  config.guess is already cross-compilation
proof: its task is to guess the *build* machine, and it does by being
independent of the cross-compiler.

And, as for Autoconf, passing --build, changes the build machine
without entering cross-compilation.
