When executing 'configure' in a fresh QEMU clone, in a fresh OS install running in a ppc64le host, this is the error shown:----- ../configure --enable-trace-backend=simple --enable-debug --target-list=ppc64-softmmu ERROR: Unsupported CPU = ppc64le, try --enable-tcg-interpreter ----- This isn't true, ppc64le host CPU is supported. This happens because, in a fresh install, we don't have a C compiler to autodetect the $cpu variable to "ppc64". Since we need a C compiler to properly get the value of $cpu in this and other cases, this patch changes the location of the C compiler check right after setting the preferred CC.
