Hi All,
I am working for NetWare port of PHP. I am trying to use the autoconf
based build system to build the binaries meant to run for NetWare with
build system being Linux.(Cross compilation).

While running ./configure with corresponding options I got errors
stating "cannot run tests while cross compiling.". I have a fix for this
located at,
http://puggy.symonds.net/~kameshj/Zend.m4.patch
Can someone review it and apply the patch?

With regards
Kamesh Jayachandran

     Committed, without the echo though as that is superfluous.

Hi Jani,
Thanks for commiting the patch. But it does not work.
The last param to AC_TRY_RUN need to be a non empty shell construct for
cross compilation to go through(empty construct won't help).

Please apply my new patch against the current HEAD(Now instead of echo
the patch do test 1)
