    - Set configure flags properly for cross-building.

  * Backport the following fix by Petr Salinger from upstream to fix
    FTBFS on GNU/kFreeBSD (Closes: #531950): [git commit b4636a4e9e]
    On Linux, ENOATTR aliases to ENODATA. On other operating systems
    like Irix and BSD*, ENOATTR is a separate error number. Therefore,
    protect the check on “err == ENODATA” with “#ifdef __linux__” in
    strerror_ea() in both getfattr/getfattr.c and setfattr/setfattr.c
