1. Use a portable shell script (ick).
2. Go through gyrations to find a native compiler (like gcc does).
3. Make it a maintainer-mode-only thing, and also stipulate native
only in configure, so it just doesn't run when it can't (you'd have
to worry about updating a file in the source tree, which might be
on a read-only filesystem).
4. Just don't do that :-)
I'm not sure which makes the most sense, though.
