The location of that script moved recently.
Try:
./sntp/libevent/build-aux/config.guess
if you are in the main source directory.
And I have not done this in a while - there might be something good to
be said to trying:
./sntp/scripts/cvo.sh
instead. Not sure - as I said, I haven't had to do a cross compile in a
long time.
And it's a wiki - as you come across improvements, please make them.
