If configure doesn't recognise that option then it's not really autotools
and you shouldn't be using the autotools class.

Looking at it I'm right,
https://bitbucket.org/Mongo/canfestival-3-asc/src/8973dd8be7e8d65a25f608fc57557c80edf20bb4/configure?at=default&fileviewer=file-view-default
is just a hand-crafted script using bash that is called "configure".  Don't
inherit autotools, and instead look at the --help output and pass all the
values you'll need to (such as --cc).  Hopefully it cross-compiles
correctly...
