I'm confused how MACHINE_GNU_PLATFORM is supposed to work with linux.

On an ArchLinux box $MACHINE_GNU_PLATFORM returns i386-pc-linux but 
mk/gnu-config/config.{guess,sub} gives i386-pc-linux-gnu resulting in 
PLIST mismatches.  Looking at them I can't see how this linux/linux-
gnu difference wouldnt happen on other linux systems so what am I 
missing?

cheers
