Most `configure' scripts use tests supplied with Autoconf as well as other tests that the package developer wrote or imported from third-party sources. If the standard tests yield incorrect results when cross-compiling, please let us know more details.

You can distill the manual changes into `configure.ac' modifications when finished. _______________________________________________ Autoconf mailing list Autoconf@xxxxxxx http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/autoconf
