Summary: KVM's --disable-gcc-check doesn't work

Initial Comment:
KVM's configure switch: "--disable-gcc-check" doesn't work.

This bug makes KVM very hard to compile on openSUSE 10.2/10.3, which, unlike Fedora doesn't have compat-gcc-34 package.

Here is the error:

alexey@suse103-home:~/Linstall/kvm-45> ./configure --disable-gcc-check
./configure: cannot locate gcc 3.x. please install it or specify with --qemu-cc

According to HELP, it should work:
alexey@suse103-home:~/Linstall/kvm-45> ./configure --help
Usage: ./configure [options]

Options include:

--prefix=PREFIX where to install things (/usr/local)
--with-patched-kernel don't use external module
--kerneldir=DIR kernel build directory (/lib/modules/2.6.22.5-31-bigsmp/build)
--qemu-cc="" compiler for qemu (needs gcc3.x) ()
--disable-gcc-check don't insist on gcc-3.x
- this will break running without kvm

Host: openSUSE 10.3, 32-bit, Intel Core 2 CPU, KVM-45.
