This is good.  I still haven't wrapped your small test case up in an 
autoconf test.  One thing I quickly realized is that of course that will 
not work correctly for a cross-compile environment.  In that case you'd 
have to fall back to some hard coded lookup table that used known 
results for whatever tools chains it knew about and took a guess when 
encountering an unknown toolchain.

Last I checked the autoconf setup did work correctly for cross compiling 
with the one catch that you have to do a native build and install first 
to have access to modelgen.  But once you have that, cross compiling 
seemed to "just work".  But this may not really matter for most (all?) 
gnucap users.
