Re: cross compiling for riscv64

You can almost certainly skip the X src set, as long as you build
without -x.

I am of two minds here:

  It is likely that buliding natively is not that bad, and also that
  many packages you want to build are not cross clean.  <flamebait>Not

  I think it's great that you are trying to make this work.  Please do
  send doc fixes if you end up with any, which is pretty likely.



Your build command had -m, but I wonder about -a.  Likely you used an
alias that sets both.  This is not obviously related to your error.
