# This file contains a table of known architecture strings, with
-# things to map them to. `configure' will take the output of gcc
-# --print-libgcc-file-name, strip off leading directories up to and
-# including gcc-lib, strip off trailing /libgcc.a and trailing version
-# number directory, and then strip off everything after the first
-# hyphen. The idea is that you're left with this bit:
-# $ gcc --print-libgcc-file-name
-# /usr/lib/gcc-lib/i486-linux/2.7.2/libgcc.a
-# ^^^^
-# This is then looked up in the table below, to find out what to map
-# it to. If it isn't found then configure will print a warning and
-# continue. You can override configure's ideas using --with-arch.
-# The third field is the GNU configure architecture to use with
-# this build architecture.
-#
-# This file is mirrored from dpkg.
