That's because it is silly. Could you get a recent 7.9.1 pre-release package
and have another go? Albert Chin has improved that test in the configure
script since the 7.9 release so it should be better for crosscompilers.

I have.

Well, the only thing that was different in my cross-compile was the CPU, the
OS was still the same so the configure script and config.h stuff looked
pretty much the same on both host and target (I built on i386 NetBSD for
StrongARM NetBSD).

I'd welcome a piece of text regarding that issue...
