autoconf failure on jdk1/gnuclasspath #1
Description
First off great work. Really glad someone's doing this, much appreciated.
I'm building this on a strange system (fork of kiss which has clang/llvm instead of gcc and is running on powerpc64). So the build error may be related to that. I will continue investigating this since this is likely the case.
But in case you've seen this before, I got as far as building gnuclasspath in the jdk1 stage. Then I got the below error. Am I missing anything obvious? I have libtool installed.

Thank you!
Related to the issue, it is odd, because the configure script (+ NEWS file) indicate that it should be supported. Is it only powerpc which has this issue? I know that guix uses patches to add aarch64 support, perhaps its something like that?
Do other architectures have this same issue or is it only ppc? I'm impressed that these scripts work unaltered on LLVM/Clang.
Thank you for testing by the way! I was meaning to do that testing myself.

@jedavies-dev This should be fixed as of b156584 let me know if it solves your issue
