[issue3754] cross-compilation support for python build

[wrobell]

wrobell <wrobell at pld-linux.org> added the comment:

as well, by default one experiences

checking for /dev/ptmx... not set
configure: error: set ac_cv_file__dev_ptmx to yes/no in your CONFIG_SITE file when cross compiling


the workaround:

1. create config.site file with the following lines

     ac_cv_file__dev_ptmx=no
     ac_cv_file__dev_ptc=no

2. run configure script as: CONFIG_SITE=config.site ./configure --host...

would be it ok if i add appropriate options for /dev/ptmx and /dev/ptc to this patch so we do not have to play with config.site file?
