  Changed paths:

  Log Message:
  -----------
  Adapt Configure to GCC version 10

I got a notice from Jeff Law <[email protected]>:

    Your particular package fails its testsuite. This was ultimately
    tracked down to a Configure problem. The perl configure script treated
    gcc-10 as gcc-1 and turned on -fpcc-struct-return. This is an ABI
    changing flag and caused Perl to not be able to interact properly with
    the dbm libraries on the system leading to a segfault.

His proposed patch corrected only this one instance of the version
mismatch. Reading the Configure script revealed more issues. This
patch fixes all of them I found.

Please note I do not have GCC 10 available, I tested it by faking the version
with:

--- a/Configure
+++ b/Configure

(cherry picked from commit 6bd6308fcea3541e505651bf8e8127a4a03d22cd, which
was accidentally reverted by commit e849841dca2a8b11119997585f795647c52cdcdf)
