Hello, community.

Following instructions on Wiki
https://wiki.postgresql.org/wiki/Building_With_MinGW I was trying to
cross compile PostgreSQL 10.1 from a Linux box (Ubuntu 16.04). But it
always fails on configure step. I tried two different systems, results
are the same.   

Log attached. I examined it and found strange lines:

configure:4113: checking whether we are cross compiling
configure:4121: gcc -o conftest    conftest.c  >&5
configure:4125: $? = 0
configure:4132: ./conftest
configure:4136: $? = 0
configure:4151: result: no

But it seems to be YES, sin't it?
