[Bug other/40046] New: GCC build fails due to host_address variable is empty

[roman dot marchenko at mail dot ru]

There is the following line in configure script:

eval `${CC-cc} -E conftest.c | grep host_address=`

Since I have GREP_OPTIONS variable in my environment which looks like
"GREP_OPTIONS=--color=always", some color codes are generated in grep's output.
The issue is the "eval ..." does not work properly in this case and the
host_address variable is empty.

I have repaired the build by replacing the line with the following:

eval `${CC-cc} -E conftest.c | grep --color=auto host_address=`
