cross-compilation fails

[Elliot Lee]

I built a cross-compiling environment (I verified that it compiles & links
a very basic program properly) and then configured libc as such:

AR=ppc-linux-ar RANLIB=ppc-linux-ranlib CC=ppc-linux-gcc ../configure \
	--target=ppc-linux --enable-add-ons=crypt,linuxthreads \
	--with-headers=/opt/src/sopwith/ppc/ppc-linux/sys-include \
	--host=i686-unknown-linux

Unfortunately the configure script still picked up the x86 sysdeps.
(I also tried specifying AR/RANLIB/CC in configparms but those weren't
picked up at all, contrary to what INSTALL says).

I know a long time ago I did something along the lines of
	../configure ppc-linux
and it built everything, but I've since been told that that will screw up
a lot of things WRT cross-compilation.

Ideas, anyone?
