Fixes cross compiling issues

Already fixed in the cvs tree for sudo 1.7 (which uses autoconf 2.59)

Comment 3 Devin Bayer 2005-11-02 12:39:59 MST

I'm sorry - I guess my patch would be unclear without explaining what was wrong.
 Sudo doesn't cross compile.  Try it yourself.  The configure script will always
say it cannot run test programs, which of course it can't when cross compiling.
 You need to allow defaults for test programs.  Here is the same patch, except
with just the important details highlighted.

Thanks, Devin Bayer

The latest sudo sources can be cross-compiled without specifying any cache values in the environment.
