Roland,
Well on a ppclinux box with RH 8.0 locally built rpms I get the
failure in configure using...
GCC=gcc CFLAGS="-g -O3" ../configure --prefix=/usr --enable-add-ons=yes
--withou
t-cvs --enable-kernel=2.2.5 --without-tls powerpc-redhat-linux
which of course isn't using --host or --build. This form of the configure
command only passes if I manually create a powerpc-redhat-linux-gcc symlink.
It's a long-standing bug in newer autoconf, even though the naked stating
of 'ppc-redhat-linux' is supposed to be backwards compatible, it isn't.
The closest possible emulation is "--host=ppc-redhat-linux
--build=ppc-redhat-linux --program-prefix=''", but that still lacks the
setting of $target_alias without triggering a cross-compile.
Franz.
