Severity: normal
Tags: patch
Calling the dpkg-architecture command with the "-a" flag while cross compiling
generates a warning that the "Specified GNU system type does not match gcc
system type". The underlying problem is that dpkg-architecture uses the wrong
gcc (${CC:-gcc}) when the "-a" flag is specified.
