Hi,

I am now trying to run Debian on Renesas SH(sh4) CPU.
http://buildd.debian-ports.org/status/architecture.php?suite=unstable&a=sh4

qd FTBFS on SH4.
Because configure included in qd is created in old autoconf.

This become the error by the following contents in config.log.

configure:8340: c++ -o conftest -O3    conftest.cpp -lrt   -little

-L/usr/lib/gcc/sh4-linux-gnu/4.4.4/../../.. -lrt -lgfortranbegin
-lgfortran -lm  >&5
/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -little
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status

Could you update confiugre with new autoconf?
Or please apply the patch which I attached.
This is patch for quick fix.

Best regards,
 Nobuhiro
