This patch also seems to work fine, and I agree
completely with you about the environment in
which configure runs, of course. In fact, I
may try to set up cross-compilation of both
OpenSSL and OpenSSH for an embedded PowerPC CPU
(a big-endian target, but I'm sure this is well
covered ground because of the Mac).
