I just figured out how to make life easy for
cross-compiling. configure should have an option,
--emit-try-run, which would generate and compile a C program
which, when compiled and run, would output environment
settings which could be used in future configure
runs to suppress AC_TRY_RUN's. To use it,
you'd first run configure with that flag,
transfer the generated try_run executable to
the host system by hand, run it, and save its output in, say, try_run.out.
Then you'd run configure again like this:
`cat try_run.out` ../configure
This roughly mirrors what I'm doing by hand as I'm
trying to cross-compile glib...
Comments?
