autoconf, pkg-config and cross-compiling

[Chris Ross]

Dear autoconf gurus,

I'm currently trying to cross-compile gst-python-0.10.5 amongst other 
things and configure emits the following:

        checking for arm-3d-linux-pkg-config... no
        checking for pkg-config... /usr/bin/pkg-config
        configure: WARNING: In the future, Autoconf will not detect
        cross-tools whose name does not start with the host triplet.
        If you think this configuration is useful to you, please write
        to address@hidden

Actually, this feature is useful to me so as requested I am writing to 
let you know that. (In the above instance, it has found the wrong 
pkg-config).

Regards,
Chris R.
