When configuring a s390->s390 or cris->cris crosscompiler
(ok, I haven't hit this yet, but one of these days I'll get me an account
on an s390, and then I'll need this patch :-), you'll get the
following error:

+ /build/s390-unknown-linux-gnu/gcc-3.3-glibc-2.3.2/gcc-3.3/configure
--target=s390-unknown-linux-gnu --host=s390-host_unknown-linux-gnu
--prefix=/result/s390-unknown-linux-gnu/gcc-3.3-glibc-2.3.2
--enable-languages=c
--with-local-prefix=/result/s390-unknown-linux-gnu/gcc-3.3-glibc-2.3.2/s390-
unknown-linux-gnu --enable-threads=no --without-headers --with-newlib
--disable-shared
...
*** --with-headers is only supported when cross compiling

This error pops up only when you're using Daniel Jacobowitz's technique
of slightly changing the target and host tuples to make them different
enough to force gcc's build system to not try to pull in system libraries
or headers.  This technique is needed e.g. to build an x86 -> x86
cross-compiler.
(The LFS developers ran into the same bug that prompted me to use
this technique; they point people who run into it to
http://linuxfromscratch.org/~greg/pure_lfs.txt, which is a different
way of avoiding this problem.  I think the tuple tweak is the way to go, though.)

config-patches@gnu.org rejected this patch, on the grounds that there
is only one vendor of each of those two architectures, so the 
canonicalization is by definition correct.  When I pointed out the
difficulty this causes for people building s390 -> s390 or
cris -> cris compilers that are incompatible with the system
libraries and thus must be built like cross-compilers, he grumped and said 
"autoconf should let you specify a cross-compiler in some other way than
comparing tuple strings".
