Would it be possible to add a default to AC_TRY_RUN or place it under
AC_CACHE_VAL so that cross-compiling works? Wget 1.6 can be
cross-compiled fine; due to this patch, the CVS version cannot anymore.
I'd vote for AC_CACHE_VAL for consistency.
What is the AC_TRY_RUN test needed for at all, BTW? Can't it be replaced
with an AC_TRY_LINK or an AC_TRY_LINK_FUNC one? The function called in
AC_TRY_RUN doesn't do anything catchable by the configure script at all --
it does never fail.
