  One needs to change "conftest" to "conftest$EXEEXT".
  Patch attached.

The compilation command omits $EXEEXT and so does the od command.  Thet
looks consistent to me, so it should work.  Why does that not work on
DOS?  Will the compiler naughtily append .exe anyway?

Hi,

With 17862:b1ea8c11ae1e, I get:

$ ./configure '--host=i586-mingw32msvc' '--disable-shared' 
'host_alias=i586-mingw32msvc'
[...]
checking format of `double' floating point... od: conftest: No such file or 
directory
od: conftest: No such file or directory
unknown 
configure: WARNING: Could not determine float format.
configure: WARNING: Conversions to and from "double" may be slow.
[...]

One needs to change "conftest" to "conftest$EXEEXT".
Patch attached.
