The WSL support in the build does not currently work with devkits. This
prevents us from using Jib to configure a WSL build. This patch fixes
configure to work with devkits when building for Windows in WSL.
(For Oracle users, I also managed to get Jib working in WSL, and able to
configure both Windows and Linux profiles. Note that since Jib is not
WSL aware itself, you need to manually direct the data dir to a location
visible from Windows. e.g --with-data-dir
/mnt/c/cygwin64/var/tmp/jib-$USER).
