Which target OSs in configure are actually used?
See
https://github.com/MythTV/mythtv/blame/240030126de07fe109ea1791a0ff03ebf712cd40/mythtv/configure#L4688

Many of them appear to be from ffmpeg but are not relevant for MythTV,
hence my question.

Thanks,
Scott

That's true.

We currently build for android, freebsd, darwin, mingw32/64, and linix.

P.S. On my todo list (for after the next release) is to explore
switching the builds to use cmake.

FWIW, At one point I toyed with Qt's "automated"
qmake .pro to cmake converter. It did not work
well so well for this project, but it did provide
ideas.

One of the (useful) prereqs was some work to
identify where the project uses flags that
configure sets. The one that I found fairly
quickly was the various big/little endian
fragments for which Qt has appropriate
abstractions and the code should be converted
to use. I believe you have already done so for
a few cases, but there are others in the code.
