Actually, I've already seen packages doing such crap.
On autoconf'ed packages, just look for AC_TRY_RUN or AC_CHECK_FILE,
etc, and you'll know the package is ill-designed.

#1: always use a sysroot'ed toolchain with matching kernel headers.
(crosstool-ng is your friend)
#2: for testing, additionally use an cross-toolchain which produces
binaries that cannot be executed on your machine (so all attempts
to run tests on the building system radically fail)
#3: on autotool'ed packages, look for crap like AC_TRY_RUN, etc
and fix it
#4: join the oss-qm project ;-p
