Actually, I had already extracted the guilty test from the configure
script and it didn't return an error when run manually:

    axl# cat /tmp/test.c
    int main(void)
    {
	return sizeof(void *) < sizeof(long);
    }
    axl# gcc -o /tmp/test /tmp/test.c
    axl# /tmp/test ; echo $?
    0

Here is your test program:

    axl# cat > /tmp/test2.c
    #include <stdio.h>

    int main (int argc, char **argv) {

      (void)fprintf(stdout, "sizeof(long)  = %d\n", sizeof(long));
      (void)fprintf(stdout, "sizeof(void*) = %d\n", sizeof(void*));

      return 0;
    }
    ^Daxl# gcc -o /tmp/test2 /tmp/test2.c
    axl# /tmp/test2
    sizeof(long)  = 4
    sizeof(void*) = 4

I am utterly puzzled.  I don't have any local change.
