bpo-45405: Prevent internal configure error when running configure with recent versions of clang. (GH-28845) (GH-31890)

ned-deily · debohman · web-flow · commit 720bb456dc71 · 2022-03-15T03:18:39.000-04:00
Change the configure logic to function properly on macOS when the compiler outputs a platform triplet for option --print-multiarch. The Apple Clang included with Xcode 13.3 now supports --print-multiarch causing configure to fail without this change. Co-authored-by: Ned Deily <nad@python.org> (cherry picked from commit 9c47667) Co-authored-by: David Bohman <debohman@gmail.com>
