In addition to the incorrect build-dependencies reported in #167067:
The versions of config.guess and config.sub in this source package are too old
to correctly support the Debian mips and mipsel architectures. A version is
needed from this year, which is available in the autotools-dev packages that
are in current woody, sarge, and sid.
