I spent some time thinking about the model # stuff, and after looking at the
HP recommended code to get the system's architecture I decided to rely on
the C code to get the architecture.  The fallback code based on model #s is
mostly obsolete now -- I don't really care if the fallback code  mis-identifies
a particular model -- so long as it does so in a safe manner.

gcc/config.sub has been targeted for termination.  texinfo/config.sub will
probably hang around much longer since we do not control the texinfo package.
