[ CC'd to port-powerpc since there is likely to be some interest there,
  as well ... maybe you noticed my mega-commit yesterday.. ]

Hi folks...

I've recently committed some changes to various system Makefiles and
bsd.*.mk files that facilitate cross-compiling.  I'm using these changes
to cross-compile NetBSD/powerpc from NetBSD/hp300.

I've been building NetBSD/hp300 natively with these changes for some
time, so I don't anticipate any problems...

In any case, below I've included the environment variables I set to
turn on cross-compiling.  Note, I haven't build the _entire_ source
tree with these, since there are some programs that use _VERY_ twisted
build processes that I haven't had a chance to fix up yet (namely
Kerberos, tn3270, etc.)  However, I _have_ converted src/bin/sh :-)

PLEASE -- before you try this, make sure that you are running VERY
up-to-date versions of make(1), lorder(1), and the bsd.*.mk files,
as well as install(1).

PowerPC folks -- I will make toolchain sources available as soon as I
work out a buglet in the linker that prevents kernels linked with it
from booting (ugh, you don't want to know..)
