libjpeg FTCBFS: fails to compute reasonable compiler identification f… #60

…rom cross tools

libjpeg fails to cross build from source, because it attempts to include a file e.g. Makefile_Settings.arm. The "arm" part here comes from an attempt at extracting a compiler identification from the compiler variable. The $ac_tool_prefix confuses the parsing code. It needs to be stripped of. Please consider applying the attached patch to make libjpeg cross buildable.

This is intentional as building shared libraries is a bit architecture specific. Thus, in simplest case, please provide a Makefile.arm. I'll leave this issue open for the time being.
