AC_CANONICAL_TARGET isn't documented in the autoconf 2.13 info file, and
the 2.13 source says it's "Internal use only." - it's used by
AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM.



In autoconf 2.5x it's the other way round: TARGET is the documented part,
SYSTEM is deprecated but still supported. Also, it seems that whatever
version of libtool Didier is using, that version requires SYSTEM or TARGET
to be set and so I decided to use the newer of the two.

AC_CANONICAL_HOST alone doesn't work. lt_target


AC_CANONICAL_TARGET alone, ok

AC_CANONICAL_SYSTEM alone, ok

AC_CANONICAL_HOST
AC_CANONICAL_TARGET ok
