The host GCC (CC) compiles and links a program and then the executable
will be looked with 'objdump' ($gcc_cv_objdump). But the latter is now
pointing to the target one!

Actually gcc_cv_objdump is correct for the rest of configure.ac; just we
are using the incorrect one for the plugin test.

Also note we need to use the one for built for the build for the host.

having an objdump which supports both the host and the target works
around this issue.

does not use OBJDUMP or similar hints for the correct name and location
of "objdump" when not doing a cross compile. On Solaris, I set

OBJDUMP=/usr/sfw/bin/gobjdump

which leads to
