The machine file for the configuration s390-*-linux-gnu which is supplied by the Debian patch to Emacs 21.2 is not the same as src/m/ibms390.h in the Emacs tree. It has different contents and a different name. > I've no evidence anything > in the Emacs head versions is wrong. > > If it isn't broken, then perhaps it is best if we do not fix it. Of course. The issue is the release branch, which doesn't have support for these configurations. I was only comparing the Debian changes to support them with the changes that have been installed in the Emacs head. > I would rather not add any new targets there if it isn't trivial to > do so. I thought GNU targets might be wanted, especially since 21.2 introduced non-GNU new targets. mipsel is trivial, though I can't test it. The changes for s390 and hp800 might count as trivial -- I don't know. I guess the original revision of m/ibms390.h would just drop in to the 21.3 source with a trivial change to configure.in.
