FWIW, I did a test build on mips, which worked fine. I ran the build under "linux32", which changes the kernel personality (an thus uname from mips64 to mips). >> But the check in configure might be >> a bit too simple-minded to know that...

Additionally you may need to pass dpkg-architecture's DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE as target to configure. Thiemo
