Hi!

Please note that by specifying both --build and --host to configure,
the configure script (incorrectly) assumes that you are cross
compiling, i.e. uses a compiler name of the form
$(ARCH)-linux-gnu-gcc, rather than just gcc. For more information,
see:

http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel/2007/11/msg00118.html

I have attached a patch, which uses the guidlines at:

http://wiki.debian.org/EmdebianGuide#Addingcross-builddetection

HTH, and thanks!

Kumar
