[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]

Too funny. Good input too, especially with that gl_cv_func_memchr_wrks as
I've had to do that with a few other packages and I had forgotten about
that option.
It probably won't be worth debugging since I'm just trying to cross-build
the minimum amount, enough to get it up and then rebuild all of it from the
ARM device itself.
It also probably doesn't help that I'm trying to use the latest (and
greatest?) of every package I come across.

Thanks for that heads-up.
