Cross-compilation is important, watch the changes that Chris Dem sent
it for that.  I'm not picking on you in particular, I'm just trying to
understand why we have the TRY_RUNs we do have in configure.in.

That's probably me.  :-)  I'm sorry if I get across the wrong way.  I
do, of course, appreciate it when people send in patches that makes
things work better.  But I tend to try to think of how we can make the
world an even better place and how to try to do that.  Sorry again if
I sounded bitter or non-grateful.
