I have:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ uname -sm
FreeBSD amd64
$ ~/src/nix-1.0pre30543/config/config.guess 
x86_64-unknown-freebsd8.2
$ ~/src/nix-1.0pre30543/config/config.guess --version | head -1
GNU config.guess (2009-11-20)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Could it be that you used a patched config.guess as shipped by the
Automake package on FreeBSD (for instance because you ran autoreconf on
the FreeBSD host)?

Thanks,
Ludo’.
