  > So, I tried it, and indeed there was fallout from AC_CANONICAL_HOST() (as noted in the PR).  Can you try to work around it somehow? src/tools/make/configure.ac contains the official way to regenerate configure.
 
 If you want to keep it simple, I could switch it to use uname instead of AC_CANONICAL_HOST(). It
 will break cross-compiling but AFAICS the whole purpose of this script is to bootstrap make on
 non-NetBSD systems, which is a very native-build oriented end, and I doubt cross-compiling was
 ever intended to work here anyways.
 
 Does that sound good?
