+Subject: [PATCH] c++ binding missed when cross compiling
+Date: Mon, 16 Feb 2015 01:01:48 -0500
+
+The configure script hard codes the include dir to the prefix'ed include dir,
+when checking if c++ compiler works. This breaks the compiler's built-in search
+path. I've included two patches. The first works on the configure.in file, which
+requires your autoconf stuff to test and I'm not ready to meddle with at the
+moment. The other works directly on the configure file. I've tested the second
+one; it should mirror what the first patch tries to achieve and works for me.
