Hello,

Just a more general question,  why are people trying to perform a
complex multi-stage build using a single build tree?

Looking at just the compiler we get three very separate stages:

	o	host (target=x, host=x)

	o	cross (target=y, host=x)

	o	native (target=y, host=y)

are three different suffixes, three different sub-directories (you would
need .obj.<host>-x-<target>), or three separate build trees better?

	enjoy,
		Andrew
