Thanks for the patch - I tried it out with a local build and it
works just fine, but produces these warnings:

$ autoconf --version
Autoconf version 2.13
$ autoconf
$ ./configure
configure.in:187: warning: AC_TRY_RUN called without default to allow cross compiling
configure.in:188: warning: AC_TRY_RUN called without default to allow cross compiling
./configure
loading cache ./config.cache
checking for gcc... gcc
checking whether the C compiler (gcc  ) works... yes
checking whether the C compiler (gcc  ) is a cross-compiler... no
checking whether we are using GNU C... yes
...[snip]...

Which is from here in your patch:

I've made a couple of adjustments to work around this, and checked
the changes in - let me know if it still works as you expected.

thanks.
