Log Message:
doc/HOWTO-use-crosscompile: Nix obsolete note about ABI.

CROSS_ABI has obsoleted it.  Should maybe document that too but it's
such a niche thing that I didn't feel inclined to work out all the
details of its semantics and intended use-cases.

 ** Bootstrapped pkgsrc
 
 You can bootstrap pkgsrc or not; it shouldn't make a difference for
-cross-compilation.  If you do:
-
- - Replace `make' by `bmake' below.
-
- - Make sure any ABI setting in mk.conf is conditionally set
-   appropriately.
-
-   For example, bootstrap on amd64 leaves ABI=64 in mk.conf, which must
-   be left empty or undefined for earmv7hf cross-builds.  So you might
-   need:
-
-      .if ${USE_CROSS_COMPILE:tl} != "yes"
-      ABI=    64 # set for native amd64 build
-      .else
-      ABI=    # empty for earmv7hf cross-build
-      .endif
