+Subject: [PATCH 2/2] When using the host file, respect FILE_COMPILE
+
+If we're cross-compiling and not using the file binary that was just built,
+execute the binary that we've been told to use (via FILE_COMPILE) when checking
+the version instead of assuming that "file" is correct as the actual compile
+uses FILE_COMPILE so different binaries may be used.
