Bug#961773: stella FTCBFS: builds for the build architecture

[Helmut Grohne]

Source: stella
Version: 6.1.2-1
Tags: patch
User: debian-cross at lists.debian.org
Usertags: ftcbfs

stella fails to cross build from source, because it builds for the build
architecture. It uses a hand-crafted configure script that doesn't
behave like the usual autoconf ones. Still it consumes the standard
--host option. Unfortunately, it does not derive a tool prefix from the
pass host so cross tools need to be passed separately. Please consider
applying the attached to pass both --host and cross tools. After doing
so, stella cross builds successfully.
