Thanks, it's still pretty minimal, but I'm working on it (slowly).

- -> I tried similar thing for sparc and from that experience I can tell

- -> native tools, includes and libs unreachable at all during the cross
- -> build. Also it could be wrong libgcc.a which should be rebuild with
- -> netbsd's includes (I'm guessing here).

I did a make build with all the (I think) right settings as far as the
host-crosscompile-tools goes, and the make did pick up on things and
use the right -nostdinc -nostdlib flags, but somehow my libraries came
out half-baked.

- -> Is there any reason not to try snapshot?

I didn't know there was one, though I'd like to actually be able to 
cross-build userland myself, so part of this is bootstrapping my
environment, not just the NFS root.
