Paolo Bonzini - Re: Updating top-level autoconf to 2.59 (original) (raw)

This is the mail archive of the gcc-patches@gcc.gnu.orgmailing list for the GCC project.

Autoconf 2.59 assumes you want a cross tool if you specify --target, no matter what you specify it as.

... this, which was likely implemented without any discussion with people really building cross tools.

Speak for yourself - I like this, despite the migration challenge. It's useful for uniformity of a set of cross tools, one of which may just happen to match $host.
