And here's the cross-compilation handling that I promised to add.
2024-10-31 Bruno Haible <br...@clisp.org>
crc: Don't attempt to run a compiled C program when cross-compiling.
* lib/crc-generate-table.c: Don't include config.h.
* modules/crc (configure.ac): Define CROSS_COMPILING variable. Invoke
AC_PROG_MKDIR_P.
(Makefile.am): When cross-compiling, don't regenerate crc-sliceby8.h.
Don't use Gnulib modules while compiling the generator.
