What advantage does the code "if [ x"$CROSS_COMPILE" != "x" ];" have over "if [ "$CROSS_COMPILE" ];"?
I don't believe the latter form worked on the early versions of sh/test, there might still be systems where if [""]; produces a syntax error.
Is 'if [ -z "$CROSS_COMPILE" ]' (untested) any more compatible?
Yes, but checks for empty rather than non empty.
