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
