 System Type Variables
 =====================
 
    After calling `AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM', the following output variables
 contain the system type information.  After `AC_CANONICAL_HOST', only
 the `host' variables below are set.
 
 ``build', `host', `target''
      the canonical system names;
 
 ``build_alias', `host_alias', `target_alias''
      the names the user specified, or the canonical names if
      `config.guess' was used;
 
 ``build_cpu', `build_vendor', `build_os''
 ``host_cpu', `host_vendor', `host_os''
 ``target_cpu', `target_vendor', `target_os''
      the individual parts of the canonical names (for convenience).
