New Revision: 775

Modified:

   trunk/checks/cruft.desc
   trunk/debian/changelog
Log:
* checks/cruft{.desc,}:
  + [RA] Tighten the timestamp check on config.{sub,guess} to look for
    files dated 2004 or newer, since that's when x86_64 was added.
    Increase to an error at the request of Ryan Murray since we already
    suppress this warning of config.{guess,sub} are modified by the
    Debian patch or if the package build-depends on autotools-dev.
    (Closes: #190897)
