The first steps towards cross-compilation.
Abstract execution of compiled test executables with $run, and abstract transfer of files with $to and $from. Under cross-compilation the $run, $to, and $from will point to appropriate wrapper scripts, by default ssh and scp, but also rsh, rcp, and cp are supported. If not cross-compiling, they will be set to '', ':', and ':', respectively. With these patches I was able to get Configure for iPAQ ARM Linux on an Intel Linux about 95% right (only a few tests failed to execute or they produced incorrect results), and I was able to compile a functional miniperl. The symbol crosscompile renamed to be usecrosscompile, the corresponding C symbol from CROSSCOMPILE to USE_CROSS_COMPILE. p4raw-id: //depot/perl@10592

You appear to have ELF support. I'll try to use it for dynamic loading.
