Any time you configure in a cross-compiling environment,
you should pre-seed configure's cache with the var=val pairs
corresponding to all `run'-tests (i.e. all tests that involve
running a just-compiled-and-linked program).  Then, when you
run `./configure --cache=pre-seeded-cache', none of those programs
will be (or need to be) run.

Some of the run-tests are able to fall back on less-efficient,
but guaranteed-to-work defaults.  It's better to determine the
precise values for those tests that are appropriate for your
target system.
