Try

  wget --output-file config.guess 
'http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/*checkout*/config/config/config.guess?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/plain'

  wget --output-file config.sub 
'http://savannah.gnu.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs/*checkout*/config/config/config.sub?rev=HEAD&content-type=text/plain'

Ugly, yes.

Another possibility is to modify your update script to do an anonymous
cvs update in a separate directory, then copy the files to wherever
they are needed.
