This comes from

revision 1.93
date: 2006-04-23 16:35:23 +0200;  author: bellard;  state: Exp;  lines: +5 -0
check if specified compiler exists

configure contains:

if [ ! -x "`which $cc`" ] ; then
    echo "Compiler $cc could not be found"
    exit
fi

You should check if the command compiles, not if it exists and is executable.
