From Debian bug #929037 [1], reported by Helmut Grohne <helmut@subdivi.de>: mathicgb fails to cross build from source, because it abuses AC_CHECK_FILE to discover source files on the build machine. The macro is meant to check for files on the host. Please use simple "test -f" here. The attached patch makes mathicgb cross buildable. Please consider applying it.
