Maybe, maybe not. To me, the original patch seems better. When keeping
$CC at the
end of the list, you'll get a cryptic error message. With this patch,
the message
is clear.
I'm a bit annoyed by the related problem, that it is not enough to pass
--host to get cross_compilation set properly. For some backwards
compatiblity reasons one has to explicitly pass --build as well, even
when config.guess figures out the build system type perfectly right.
Documented in some detail at
https://www.gnu.org/savannah-checkouts/gnu/autoconf/manual/autoconf-2.71/autoconf.html#Hosts-and-Cross_002dCompilation
Well, in this case, setting both --host and --build doesn't work.
So I'd be glad if the patch in question could be integrated. The reason
I'm asking
is because there are a number of open-source projects affected by this
bug, and would
be benefited if this bug got resolved.
Kinds regards,
Johannes Kauffmann
