Re: Cross compiling texinfo-4.7

[Mark Fortescue]

Hi Stepan,

I have finally got around to testing your modifications. I have attached a
small patch affecting the 'tools dir' configure as I found that it was
using the wrong compiler when run from my cross compilation scripts.

This patch should make it much more robust.

Regards
        Mark Fortescue.
