    [configure/make] Propagate names of build host tools when making BuildTools · 0d34006a
    Meador Inge authored
    When cross-compiling LLVM itself the configure/make scripts get confused when
    creating the needed build host tools.  For example, building and configuring
    like:
    
      CC_FOR_BUILD='i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc' CXX_FOR_BUILD='i686-pc-linux-gnu-g++'
      CXX='i686-mingw32-g++' CC='i686-mingw32-gcc' LD='i686-mingw32-ld' /scratch
      /meadori/llvm-trunk/src/trunk/configure --host=i686-mingw32
    
      CC_FOR_BUILD='i686-pc-linux-gnu-gcc' CXX_FOR_BUILD='i686-pc-linux-gnu-g++'
      CXX='i686-mingw32-g++' CC='i686-mingw32-gcc' LD='i686-mingw32-ld' make
    
    causes the following build break:
    
      checking whether the C compiler works... configure: error: cannot run C
      compiled programs.
      If you meant to cross compile, use `--host'.
      See `config.log' for more details.
    
    The 'config.log' shows that i686-mingw32-gcc is being used to create
    executables for the build host.
    
    This patch fixes the problem by propogating the names of the build host
    tools via BUILD_* when configuring/making BuildTools.
    
    Original patch by Ekaterina Sanina.
