[gentoo-dev] [PATCH 2/2] multilib.eclass: populate STRINGS

[Sergei Trofimovich]

For both multilib and non-multilib profiles binutils provides
tools with native CHOST prefix only. For example on amd64 there
is only 'x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-strings' and 'strings'.

autoconf usually uses AC_CHECK_TOOL(STRINGS, strings) autodetection
to discover either of these.

The change overrides STRINGS and friends to 'x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-strings'
for multilib setup similar to other environment variables.

Tested on media-libs/x264 and x11-libs/cairo packages.
