Hello, Lyncei,
The following:
* updates for config.guess, config.sub from tin -TD
has introduced conflicting treatment of OS/390 in config.guess:

Alas, the earlier prevails where I much prefer the latter.
I'm surprised it worked at all. I got the latter from Mortice Kern
Systems, http://www.mks.com/s390/gnu/register.htm, which has done
a thorough port of Autoconf. Alas, reportedly RMS sneers at OS/390,
considering it too far out of mainstream to merit consideration,
so the MSK OS/390 adaptation has never been fed back to the main
Autoconf tree.
But which should prevail for Lynx's OS/390 port, Tin or MKS?
BTW, "370", "mvs" and "openedition" are all obsolete in IBM's
lexicon, having been replaced by "S/390", "OS/390", and
"Unix Services". Of these, "S/390" and "OS/390" are marked
to be obsolete this year, to be replaced by something code
named "Freeway".
