Details:
Remove the "FIXME: To remove some day" code at the end of _AC_INIT_PARSE_ARGS
that can set $cross_compiling to "maybe", and the corresponding code in
_AC_COMPILER_EXEEXT_CROSS. The new behavior would be that if you specify
--host=<anything> and
don't also say --build=<same anything>, cross compilation mode is
engaged.
This should *not* be done for 2.70, but maybe it should be done early in the
2.71 cycle.
