I don't think merging is right way to do. To be honest, I should update gnuconfig files in automake more often than I've done so far. That's because automake brings sources into autotooled distribution tarballs, and those should be upd2date. On the other hand, updating gnuconfig files in redhat-rpm-config is something which is used by %configure, and something which is worth updating once we have a request for it.

Perhaps these should be combined?!

redhat-rpm-config config.sub/guess are old
The versions of config.sub and config.guess in redhat-rpm-config are 3+ years old. I'd like to update these to the very latest versions, primarily because the upstream versions support riscv64. Is there a reason not to do that? I don't want to break something unexpectedly.
