Part of this is easy. Following links from IBM's
official OS/390 home page:

   Linkname: OS/390 UNIX -- Tools and Toys to Download
        URL: http://www.s390.ibm.com/products/oe/bpxa1toy.html
 
   Linkname: free gnu
        URL: http://www.mks.com/s390/gnu/index.htm

   Linkname: Mortice Kern Systems (MKS) Inc. - OS/390 OpenEdition -- GNU
          Utilities Downloads
        URL: http://www.mks.com/s390/gnu/download.htm#autoconf

   Linkname: m4-1.4.os390.tar.Z
        URL: ftp://ftp.mks.com/pub/s390/gnu/m4-1.4.os390.tar.Z

and extracting an archive and taking a diff.

How are config.guess and config.sub supposed to be coordinated,
anyway?  For example, the mks page omits a system that your
page contains.  (I removed the delete commands from the patch.)

The following gets it so the compiler runs.  Now I need to
merge patches to the source:
