[PATCH v2 1/1] Makefile: make curl-config path configurable

[PATCH v2 1/1] Makefile: make curl-config path configurable

[Remi Pommarel]

There are situations, ie during cross compilation, where curl-config program
is not present in the PATH.

Make the makefile use a configurable curl-config program passed through
CURL_CONFIG variable which can be set through config.mak.

Also make this variable tunable through use of autoconf/configure. Configure
will set CURL_CONFIG variable in config.mak.autogen to whatever value has been
passed to ac_cv_prog_CURL_CONFIG.

Could this go down with the other programs (CC, AR, FIND, et al)?

The rest looks good.
