There are cases when cross_compiling = yes, yet you can run the executables, for example when you have --build=i686-pc-gnu --host=i386-pc-gnu or even --build=i686-pc-gnu --host=i686-gnu But AC_RUN_IFELSE doesn't help you here, since it doesn't even try to run the executable when cross_compiling = yes. If you wanted to be absolutely sure, you'd have to try to run an executable on your own. But I don't think it's worth it.
