+
+Same machine; GNU/Hurd running as a Xen domU (this fact very hopefully being
+irrelevant):
+
+GNU/Linux:
+
+ $ [...]/config.guess
+ i686-pc-linux-gnu
+ $ uname -a
+ Linux zenhost 2.6.26-2-xen-686 #1 SMP Sun Jun 21 09:15:17 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux
+
+GNU/Hurd:
+
+ $ [...]/config.guess
+ i386-unknown-gnu0.3
+ $ uname -a
+ GNU grubber.bddebian.com 0.3 GNU-Mach 1.3.99/Hurd-0.3 i386-AT386 GNU
+
+This causes autoconf-based packages to be configured for i386 instead of i686.
+
+This is very likely a [[!taglink open_issue_gnumach]], and [[tschwinge]] seems
+to remember that someone has been looking at this before, but apparently it has
+not yet been fixed.
