Fix configure logic for disabling multi-arch


When testing building with old binutils versions in preparation for
increasing the minimum binutils version for building glibc, I found
that the configure test for whether multi-arch can be supported was
broken.  It uses

if test x"$libc_cv_asm_gnu_indirect_function" != xyes -a x"$libc_cv_asm_type_prefix" = xno; then

meaning that if gnu_indirect_function is unsupported, but a type
prefix is identified, then multi-arch will wrongly be considered to be
supported; it appears it should use -o not -a.  This patch fixes this
(tested both with the old non-multi-arch assembler, where the build
fails for other reasons, and with a new multi-arch supporting
assembler, where the build works; in both cases the configure tests
give the right results for enabling multi-arch).

	* configure.in: Use -o not -a in test for unsupported multi-arch.
	* configure: Regenerated.
