I ran into another interesting cross-compile bug:
Using dpkg-buildpackage -ahurd-i386, it configures gcc-3.3 like so:
--build=i386-linux
--host=i386-gnu
--target=i386-linux
It looks like:
DEB_TARGET_ARCH := $(shell dpkg-architecture -f \
-a$(GCC_TARGET) -qDEB_HOST_ARCH 2>/dev/null)
Is flawed because it assumes that it GCC_TARGET isn't set that it must
be targetted to the current machine. Instead it should check to see if
DEB_BUILD_GNU_TYPE and DEB_HOST_GNU_TYPE are the same, and only use
GCC_TARGET if they are.
You could probably get more complicated if this is intended to build
Canadian cross's as well - but that's just getting the rules right for
doing the right thing when GCC_TARGET isn't defined.
Tks,
