The definition of cross-compiler is the host and target being different from each other. Often the architecture is different, but only the OS different is a cross-compiler as well, or even just a variantn of the OS makes one. Usually build=host, but how a compiler is built has nothing to do with anything really :-) Of course it does matter how you build something if you want it to work in the end, heh. Normally you do not want to specify --build=, the autodetect works a lot better than what you can guess :-) And if you want to run the compiler on the machine you are building on you do not want to give --host= either, the default is to use host=build! :-) For cross-compilers, you obviously do want --target=, and almost certainly you want some --with-prefix= as well, but not many other configure flags at all. Have fun, good luck, Segher
