Patch for "file" attached. Strangely, it uses "file" in its configure
script, but this does not seem to be crucial:
case `/usr/bin/file conftest.o` in
*32-bit*)
case $host in
x86_64-*kfreebsd*-gnu)
LD="${LD-ld} -m elf_i386_fbsd"
;;
x86_64-*linux*)
LD="${LD-ld} -m elf_i386"
;;
ppc64-*linux*|powerpc64-*linux*)
LD="${LD-ld} -m elf32ppclinux"
;;
s390x-*linux*)
LD="${LD-ld} -m elf_s390"
;;
sparc64-*linux*)
LD="${LD-ld} -m elf32_sparc"
;;
esac
;;
*64-bit*)
case $host in
x86_64-*kfreebsd*-gnu)
etc.

I think this bit is automatically added by Autoconf everywhere. Nothing
to worry about, it seems.

I added it as an input to libtiff. I suppose this is the right thing to do,
or should I drop it there as well?

Well, since /usr/bin/file is hard-coded, adding ‘file’ as an input would
not be enough: you’d also need to patch ‘configure’.
However, this /usr/bin/file stanza in ‘configure’ scripts doesn’t seem
to have any practical impact since we’ve been building without it for
ages. So I would just keep ignoring it. :-)

Yes, this is what I did indeed.
