Sorry for the delay in my feedback, but here it finally is ;-)

1. I tried to understand what you are actually fixing here.
   For me it looks that under amd64-linux the native versus cross
   compilation is incorrectly detected and as a result you are faced
   with build problems within libstd++. Can you give more details,
   Steve?

2. I'm very unhappy that this hack for this single platform
   is such intrusive to our GCC package. A patch of nearly 200KB and
   for a generated file like "configure". Rather CVS intrusive and hard
   to maintain. It is possible to reduce it in size? Or even better:
   to replace it with a single "%{l_shtool} subst"? For instance the
   patch seems to remove always the same piece of code. We could so
   something like "s/test x.gcc_no_link = xyes/false/g" and this way
   already reduce the patch to the first hunk (which is different).
