Description Darren Tucker 2005-09-30 11:48:44 AEST

It has been pointed out that some of the tests in configure don't work when
cross compiling.  I have a patch (against -current) which I will attach but I
can't test it.

If anyone cross-compiling openssh can test it it would be appreciated.

Replace AC_TRY_RUN with AC_COMPILE_IFELSE

Patch against -current.  Will need to run "autoreconf" (autoconf 2.59 or
higher) before rerunning configure.

I don't see the advantage of replacing one obsolete macro with
another obsolete macro.

Other than that, the patch looks good. I can't test cross compile, but
replaceing some of the obsolete macros is worth doing.
