It appears that the contents of openSUSE 12.1's site file are buggy.

The CONFIG_SITE mechanism is purposefully provided to help "prime the
cache" for ./configure scripts when cross compiling to provide answers
to questions which would normally require code to be compiled and run
(which fails, of course, when the compiler being used is a cross
compiler).

Should the CONFIG_SITE feature be disabled and otherwise unavailable
to users just because there's a bug in openSUSE's implementation?
