Darwin mirage.local 20.3.0 Darwin Kernel Version 20.3.0: Thu Jan 21 00:06:51 PST 2021; root:xnu-7195.81.3~1/RELEASE_ARM64_T8101 arm64 arm64 MacBookAir10,1 Darwin
>Description:
Some packages fail to build on M1-based Macs because the GNU config.guess script is out of date and doesn't recognize ARM64 on Darwin as a valid platform.

For example, trying to build graphics/jbig2dec fails with:
checking build system type... Invalid configuration `arm64-apple-darwin20.3.0': machine `arm64-apple' not recognized
configure: error: /bin/sh ./config.sub arm64-apple-darwin20.3.0 failed

>How-To-Repeat:
$ cd graphics/jbig2dec
$ bmake

>Fix:
Below is a quick patch for this based on the latest version of config.guess from the automake project on Savannah <https://git.savannah.gnu.org/cgit/automake.git/commit/lib/config.guess?id=f50685a5f5c04bd8ec2a9577e1a7b8d7cf8967cb>

Since this is from upstream, updating all of files in mk/gnu-config to the latest would also resolve it.
