You will need to override the configure step for figuring out things via
compilation and running.

You will need to look at the configure script and see if you can
override the sizeof char.  (Similarly to how you overrode
ac_cv_func_setvbuf_reversed on the command line.)

If that is not possible, you will have to hack "configure" with the hard
coded value.  (To do it "right" you should modify configure.in, then run
autoconf.  However, that doesn't always work.)
