This fixes 2 major cross-compiling issues (as commented in #72). With this patch we can cross-compile at least the extrae version without external libraries, so hopefully we'd be able to merge https://github.com/JuliaPackaging/Yggdrasil/pull/5710 .
MPI and xml2 cross-compile configuration issues mentioned in #72 are left outstanding. I have some code that fixes the MPI part but I wasn't able to test the solution on my computer because configure is stubbornly refusing to find debian's openmpi headers for some reason. (Any advice welcome :D ).
On a note, I killed the specific BGQ/BGL/MIC/ARM/.... machine tests because hopefully the pointer sizes should be derivable directly; if there are exceptions (pointer size != sizeof(void*)) please lmk.
