Description

configure tries to run test on the buildsystem instead of the target system, which fails horribly for cross compilation.

it is assumed that if you're cross-compiling you've set things up properly, like telling the configure script where you're cross compiler is. Otherwise all other tests are also invalid.

Also we don't actually support cross compilation, so this at best would have to go in as a Feature request.

I've set up everything correctly, but pointing to the right crosscompiler will not help with trying to run generated binaries. The work around I made seems to work:

diff --git a/support/configure.inc b/support/configure.inc
index 840c939..17f9b31 100755
--- a/support/configure.inc
+++ b/support/configure.inc
@ -265,8 +265,6 @ int main() {
EOF
$CC $CFLAGS $LDFLAGS $TMPDIR/$$.c o $TMPDIR/$$.bin $opt #&> /dev/null
RET=$?
 [ $RET eq 0 ] && $TMPDIR/$$.bin
 RET=$?
rm -f $TMPDIR/$$.{c,bin}
return $RET
