+Subject: [PATCH] Fix bad configure tests
+
+There was an extra -c in the CMAKE_REQUIRED_FLAGS set for testing
+HAVE_UNW_GET_ACCESSORS and HAVE_UNW_GET_SAVE_LOC that was breaking
+build of coreclr under homebrew. The option was somehow making
+these checks behave on ARM Linux, eveb though it is not clear to
+me why, as it was just causing this option to be passed to the
+compiler twice at different positions of the command line of
+the cmake tests.
+This change fixes it by using check_symbol_exists instead of
+check_c_source_compiles, since just removing the duplicite -c
+was resulting in the check failing on ARM / ARM64 Linux due
+to a missing symbol from libunwind during linking.
