[PATCH 0/1] MR5586: configure: Test PE compilers after setting their target argument.

[Billy Laws (＠bylaws)]

clang will default to the host if no target is specified, which causes
compile test failures if arch-specific CFLAGS are used for a non-host
arch.

[PATCH 1/1] configure: Test PE compilers after setting their target argument.

From: Billy Laws

clang will default to the host if no target is specified, which causes
compile test failures if arch-specific CFLAGS are used for a non-host
arch.

This still needs an AC_CACHE_CHECK. Also it's redundant if the -target tests succeeded.
