Both environment variables seem to be standard in cross-compilation environments, especially with Linux. Let the configure script take those into account when setting the default values for --arch and --cross-prefix. Explicitly specifying the latter on the configure command line still works as expected. Signed-off-by: Andre Przywara <andre.przywara@xxxxxxx> --- Hi, this maybe a personal itch to scratch here, since I set these two variables in my environment via a (sourced) script here and never have to care about the particular cross-compiler prefix, for instance. It looks rather generic, though, so I was wondering if this is useful upstream as well.
