But then host (correctly) defaults to build but host_alias (incorrectly) defaults to host.  I mean the current dependency between variables inautoconf is as follows ("(sub)" meaning passing through config.sub):                 guess                   |override -(sub)-+  ||               |  |v               v  vbuild_alias <-- build                   |override -(sub)-+  ||               |  |v               v  vhost_alias <--- host                   |override -(sub)-+  ||               |  |v               v  vtarget_alias <- targetAnd I would like to see it as follows:            guess            |            voverride -> build_alias --(sub)-> build            |            voverride -> host_alias ---(sub)-> host            |            voverride -> target_alias -(sub)-> targetI think it makes sense and the dependencies seem even simpler.
