Hmm,
Even when given a --target=hppa-linux ./configure still
tries to use the normally named (and hence native) programs
(ld, nm, ar, as, gcc) instead of adjusting to cross-compiler
names (hppa-linux-as, hppa-linux-nm, hppa-linux-ar, hppa-linux-as,
hppa-linux-gcc).
I *think* this is wrong -- but if it is shouldn't it be affecting
many more people than just us? This should be rather core-level voodoo
for autoconf. Must be some other explantion as to why this doesn't work
in our case...
(At least this is how I *think* cross compile is supposed to
work, maybe I am wrong; it's how it works for binutils/gcc/etc,
but that's a special case.)
