You are wrong. Obviously such a test can not be run when cross compiling, but that is true for all tests where you need to run a program (note that the above is meant as an actual C program doing a mkdir() and a read()).
And when cross compiling, either the user has to specify the test result in a config cache, or grep needs to rely on host_os to determine the default for known systems. Anything that requires someone to make an config.cache with specific options is wrong. As for relying on host_os, that might be OK, but I still think that just reverting this to the way grep-2.4.x was is better. _______________________________________________ Help-hurd mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-hurd
