This warning has been reworded in autoconf 2.63, to not sound as severe.
We are not planning on dropping cross-compilation support.  Rather, you
are facing a warning because you are invoking cross-tools not named to
make it obvious that they are cross-tools (usually solvable with strategic
symlinks).  When invoking cross-tools with confusing names, you are
opening the door to subtle hard-to-debug problems.
