I wouldn't think so.  The config scripts are traditionally just for
the compiler and linker arguments to find the header files and the
libraries whereever they are installed.  It's a no-brainer.

Setting the file offset bits to 64 is a deeply penetrating decision
that must be done consciously by the developer, and needs to be
coordinated with the other libraries used and the application code.
It has global, far-reaching effects.

Werner forwarded me your suggestion on gnupg-user from a while ago.
It is easy to add, and I think I can do it soon.  The information is
already provided by gnupg, we just need to store it in the result
structure.

np.  Note that such issues are all more appropriately for gnupg-devel,
which I am following (I don't follow gnupg-users, sorry).

Thanks,
