Re: How to cross-compile

[Love Hörnquist Åstrand <lha@kth.se>]

Hello,

There are several tools that are built as part of the toolchain, some  
of them could be replaced distribution time built files (like yacc/lex).

I've started several times to do this work, but never completed. Its  
possible to do. The Heimdal that is inside NetBSD is built using cross- 
compiling.

Love
