I've verified that build = host = <library target> (which is i386-pc-mingw32)
for the MingW native, as well as BOTH the Linux cross and crossed-native compilers.
This has the consequence that for both the cross and crossed-native compilers,
we would set the max. command line length too conservatively low.
As such, even though my patch would work, I'd like to put it on hold until
I can figure out the right thing to do:
- fix one or more of the libtool scripts?
- fix MSYS so that the test isn't broken?
- go ahead and do my patch anyway?
I'm confused as to what the most correct / most expedient choice is.
What do you think, Ranjit? Fix MSYS?
