Fix cross-compiling issue

mesa build builtin_compiler and run it while compiling. It won't work in cross-compiling due to it file is not a native executable.

Isn't that something which should rather be fixed upstream?

[Comment 2 DaboD 2012-04-25 05:05:22 UTC]

Let the upstream fix it is the best solution. But, I don't know when will they accept it.

[Comment 3 Chí-Thanh Christopher Nguyễn 2012-04-25 10:20:18 UTC]

Can you provide the link to an upstream bug report or mailing list discussion about this issue?

[Comment 4 DaboD 2012-04-25 11:23:26 UTC]

I am not report to update yet.

[Comment 5 DaboD 2012-04-25 11:24:15 UTC]

I am not report to the upstream yet.

I'm okay with an ebuild hack to make this work if it'll help people, because this bug has been known upstream for a while.

See https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44618 with a patch.

Thanks. I am porting Gentoo on to Freescale i.MX53. There are bunch of packages have this kind of issue. Currently, I am maintaining my own overlay, it's tiring to sync with official tree.

If you accept this kind of hack, I can keep helping to resolve this kind of issues. It is not only help ARM user, but make Gentoo more cross-platform friendly.

9.1 has cross compiling support. Marking as fixed.
