In fact if you do 
	./configure --host=i386-pc-mingw32
The autoconf shoudl automagically select a cross compiler for you, if ever
it finds one named '$host-gcc' in your path. So if you put Jon's script in
/usr/bin but name it 'i386-pc-mingw32-gcc', autoconf should get it
automatically.

WARNING: I've not time to test it right, so I don't remember for sure if
autoconf will try '$host-gcc' or '$host_alias-gcc' where $host_alias is what
you pass as a --host argument and $host is the canonicalised host name
(result of config.sub $host_alias).
