I don't have my RiscPC here at work, and anyway I'd need the 32-bit 
versions, but I had a quick look.  I didn't get as far as checking if 
endianness would bite it, but (a) you have no leg to stand on 
criticising configure scripts with that file, and (b) I think you may be 
making assumptions about non-aligned pointers that will kill you on 
ARM3, and are horribly inefficient elsewhere.
