More useful log output at <http://pastie.org/5643258>. It seems to casting a number about and then checking... something, which is failing.
So, it may be the way that the internal autoconf check works for cross-compiling violates an assumption about how that macro works.
The check is if this value is integral (which it clearly is not), but if the test completely fails to compile it treats that as "the compiler does not support this type", which in this case is false.
Really, the "is this integral" check is probably optional on these types, but if we want it to run it needs some changes for cross-compiling.
I'm trying to dig into the nature of the failure itself now. -- Stephen Paul Weber, @singpolyma See <http://singpolyma.net> for how I prefer to be contacted edition right joseph
