You mention Haiku.  Did you ever attempt to cross-compile Haiku from NetBSD?

I tried but never succeeded, apparently because Haiku build system makes assumptions about where certain files are located on host system.  Some of these differ for NetBSD and even FreeBSD.

I changed the subject so as not to be accused of thread hijacking.

Anybody who is interested can respond on this list or on haiku-development list, if they are subscribed to that list, as I am.
