Subject: Configure: do not check for an absolute prefix in cross-builds
X-Git-Tag: openssl-3.3.0-alpha1~610
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=4ea752997df83c2a694fdb157aab07908303fc90;p=thirdparty%2Fopenssl.git

Configure: do not check for an absolute prefix in cross-builds

The check is always made according to the host platform's rules, which may
not be true for true when the target platform is different, e.g. when
cross-building for Windows on a Linux machine. So skip this check when
used together with the `--cross-compile-prefix=` option.
