cross compiling

[Claus Rosenberger]

sorry, it doesn't solve my problem.

i got following result

***
checking whether struct dirent allocates space for d_name... configure:
error: cannot run test program while cross compiling
....
***


the patch only change configure.ac and not configure. why configure cannot
only put out information about problems while checking things with
cross-compiling and continue the work ?
