Suresh Sundriyal d118a60a36 [cross-compile] Allow build artifacts to be built with build compilers.
While cross-compiling; bin2c and ptimec need to run during build on the
build-host. Currently; the host compiler is picked and the generated
binaries cannont be exec'ed causing the build to fail.

The change fixes the bin2c and ptimec compilation units to use the
build host compatible compiler.

# SYNOPSIS
#
# AX_PROG_CC_FOR_BUILD
#
# DESCRIPTION
#
# This macro searches for a C compiler that generates native executables,
# that is a C compiler that surely is not a cross-compiler. This can be
# useful if you have to generate source code at compile-time like for
# example GCC does.
#
# The macro sets the CC_FOR_BUILD and CPP_FOR_BUILD macros to anything
# needed to compile or link (CC_FOR_BUILD) and preprocess (CPP_FOR_BUILD).
# The value of these variables can be overridden by the user by specifying
# a compiler with an environment variable (like you do for standard CC).
#
# It also sets BUILD_EXEEXT and BUILD_OBJEXT to the executable and object
# file extensions for the build platform, and GCC_FOR_BUILD to `yes' if
# the compiler we found is GCC. All these variables but GCC_FOR_BUILD are
# substituted in the Makefile.
