It seems to me that Autoconf (configure) is making some bad choices if it is just guessing that support exists like that, especially when it has a guaranteed fallback. It's job is to setup the build for the target host system.
I think you don't need to work in absolutes like that. That's an awful lot of systems you'd be orphaning if cross-compilation made that choice -- more than 90% of the targets, I'd bet. I'd rather configure for that majority and provide a workaround for systems without sbrk. -- ``The lyf so short, the craft so long to lerne.'' - Chaucer ``Ars longa, vita brevis'' - Hippocrates Chet Ramey, UTech, CWRU c...@case.edu http://tiswww.cwru.edu/~chet/
