memtailor fails to cross build from source, because it abuses
AC_CHECK_FILE. The macro is meant to check for files on the host system,
but memtailor uses it to check for files expected on the build system.
Please use a simple test -e for the latter. Please consider applying the
attached patch.

Thanks for the report!  I've submitted a pull request with your patch upstream.
