cross compiler is not cross compiler :-)



Hi,

The subject line sounds a bit strange, but describes my situation quite 
accurartely :-) The "configure" script for RTEMS tests, wether the 
compiler for the target exists and wether it is a cross compiler. Here 
are the results:

  checking whether the C compiler (/i386-rtemself/bin/i386-rtemself-gcc)
  works... yes
  checking whether the C compiler (/i386-rtemself/bin/i386-rtemself-gcc)
  is a cross-compiler... no

The target type is "i386-rtemself" and I'm running this on Win-NT (using 
CygWin). I assume that the
   "lets see if we can execute the cross compiler output"
test actually runs the output, due to the closeness of host and target 
machine type. The "configure" script draws the conclusion that "i386-
rtemself-gcc" is not a cross compiler.

My question: is this OK ? Might this cause problems later on ?

Stephan
