Re: binutils turns gcc into a cross compiler

configure scripts generated by autoconf 2.13 assume that, if configure
can't run a program created by the compiler, then the compiler is a
cross-compiler.

Try to compile and link a hello world-like program using the installed
gcc and binutils and see why configure thinks it's a cross compiler.
