Hello list, on Ubuntu 8.04 I find that if I specify CC when I run configure, the configure script dies when it runs config.sub. I get this output
$ CC=/usr/local/gcc-4.3.0/bin/gcc ./config.guess x86_64-unknown-linux- but when I run with the system compiler (gcc 4.2.4): $ ./config.guess x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu config.sub does not like "x86_64-unknown-linux-" and dies. I don't find this behavior on a gentoo installation or Ubuntu 9.10. The dist tar file is the same. Since the config.guess scripts I am using on the ubuntu and the gentoo systems are the same, I guess the problem lies outside config.guess. I have tried to understand what config.guess does, but haven't gotten very far, so I can't tell what's going on. nick
