Actually, just a compiler for the right +machine that can find the Mach include files will do (i.e. the `include/mach' +tree installed by the gnumach distribution). If you tell configure to +produce a cross-mig by giving --target and --host options that differ, it +will attempt to find a compiler for the target; for example, with the command +`configure --host=SOMETHING --target=i486-gnu', it will automatically try to +use `i486-gnu-gcc' for the target compilations. You can explicitly set the +target compiler to use by setting `TARGET_CC' in configure's environment +(e.g. `TARGET_CC=i486-gnu-gcc configure'). If you don't specify --target, +then the native compiler must be able to find a Mach include tree. + +Bug reports relating to this distribution should be sent to +. Requests for assistance should be made on +. -- cgit v1.2.3
