Berlios Patch #2525, courtesy of Diego E. "Flameeyes" Pettenò:
"The AC_CANONICAL_TARGET macro and the $target_os variables are used for the target of compilers and other code-generation tools, and should not be used during cross-compile of generic software. Replace them with AC_CANONICAL_HOST and $host_os instead, as they should have been from the start. For a breakdown of what host, build and target machines are, please see http://blog.flameeyes.eu/s/canonical-target ." svn path=/branches/BRANCH_6-3/; revision=5258
