      Description

        Sometimes the detected CL.EXE cannot be run without additions to the PATH in configure. This seems to happen with certain VS2010 and VS2012 installations.
        The error appears as:

        configure: error: Target CPU mismatch. We are building for x86 but CL is for "directory"; expected "80x86" or "x86".

        The best solution seems to be to move the check in TOOLCHAIN_MISC_CHECKS to closer to where we locate the compiler, and still have the VS PATH setup.
