Hi

We have registered two new buildfarm animals for RHEL 7 on PPC64 and PPC64LE (Little Endian). The configure for 9.3, 9.2 and 9.1 failed on ppc64le with the error "error: cannot guess build type; you must specify one". This is because config.guess for these branches don't expect the arch to be ppc64le (case statement). When I passed the build type as "powerpc64le-unknown-linux-gnu" to the configure script, the build is successful. 

So, config.guess should be changed to include the build type for ppc64le like it is in 9.4+ branches.
