Subject: configure.ac [mingw]: Set $canonical default value
X-Git-Tag: emacs-25.0.90~2635^2~338
X-Git-Url: http://git.eshelyaron.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=70d7aa8a289375a119f5d4e785c8a5882f0a2e99;p=emacs.git

configure.ac [mingw]: Set $canonical default value

... as per the compiler's target.

The value provided by MSYS2 `uname' is not correct when MSYS2 runs on
one architecture (x86_64) and the user is building for another (i686).

	* configure.ac [mingw]: Set $canonical default value as per the
	compiler's target.
