[committed] Don't share target config.cache on mainline


Committing this to the top level.  It's kind of evil, but I'm guessing it will
fix some of the multilib build problems.  Bootstrapped i686-pc-linux-gnu.
Please, if you were having multilib build problems, give it a try.

	PR bootstrap/11932, PR bootstrap/11933
	(I don't know if it will fix either of them, but it relates
	to them.)
	* configure.in: Don't use shared config.cache for target
	directories.
	* configure: Regenerate.

+# Different target subdirs use different values of certain variables
+# (notably CXX).  Worse, multilibs use *lots* of different values.
+# Worse yet, autoconf 2.5x makes some of these 'precious', meaning that
+# it doesn't automatically accept command-line overrides of them.
+# This means it's not safe for target subdirs to share a cache file,
+# which is disgusting, but there you have it.  Hopefully this can be
+# fixed in future.  It's still worthwhile to use a cache file for each
+# directory.  I think.
