Can't build crosstests

[Fabian Maurer]

Hello,

I'm trying to build the tests for windows, but I can't get it working anymore. 
I have mingw installed and it does work for cross-compiling with code-blocks, 
but wine says it's broken.
The configure script fails with
> checking for i686-w64-mingw32-gcc... i686-w64-mingw32-gcc
> checking whether i686-w64-mingw32-gcc works... no

An idea how to find out what's going wrong?

Hi Fabian,

You can have more information about this failure in config.log.

Thanks, I somehow completely missed that...

The error is:
> configure:8781: i686-w64-mingw32-gcc -c -g -O0 -rdynamic  conftest.c >&5

I'm on Arch Linux with mingw-w64-gcc 6.2.1
Seems like the script passes wrong options to gcc.

I think your "-O0 -rdynamic" options are coming from someplace outside
of configure. I'm also on Arch Linux and I see:

configure:8924: result: ccache i686-w64-mingw32-gcc
configure:8940: checking whether ccache i686-w64-mingw32-gcc works
configure:8953: ccache i686-w64-mingw32-gcc -c -g -O2  conftest.c >&5

I also noticed the configure line numbers are different, which seems
strange as configure is tracked by git. The string 'rdynamic' doesn't
appear in Wine's configure script.

Oh yes, you're right...
I had a wrong CFLAGS environment variable set. Sorry for that, but thanks for 
the help!
