Bug#289884: The Configure script seems buggy

Hi all!

The Configure script is missing the return value of the unaligned access test.

As we can see in the buildd log (https://buildd.debian.org/fetch.cgi?pkg=perl;ver=5.10.1-12;arch=armel;stamp=1271034947),
the build system for perl thinks ARM can access unaligned data.

But this is *wrong*.


I extracted and compiled the test program, and it fails on ARM (as expected).

So this is a problem with the Configure script. It seems to miss the return value of the
test executed.

Best regards


Marc
