[New-bugs-announce] [issue33341] python3 fails to build if directory or sysroot contains "*icc*" string

[Gianfranco]

New submission from Gianfranco <costamagnagianfranco at yahoo.it>:

Hello, as said, in yocto we pass in $CC environment, also the --sysroot keyword.

If --sysroot contains the "*icc*" or "*gcc*" in path, the build fails because of wrong autoconf checks.

checking in a case switch for *icc* seems bad to me, I propose to change it with something like
"*icc" so we might exclude when icc is not the compiler.

I know this isn't a strong patch, but maybe we can apply it while writing some better detect code.

The build fails as descripted in the yocto bug
