Unfortunately, fixing this (CR 6401063) is hard since in general autoconf
tests require that test binaries can run on the build machine. Everything
else is handled as cross-compilation, which isn't well supported by most
packages. I've done a couple of fixes to avoid the build failures where
possible, but didn't yet get around to submitting them.
