Hello all,

Timesys guys have been looking at this problem.
This *is* an open-source project plug:
The www.openembedded.org guys have solved this problem.
As with most open-source project, it takes some time digging in before
it starts getting productive, and documentation comes after product.
This project took me two weeks to fully grasp; I am now happily
cross-building whatever comes at me (toolchains, kernels, root
filesystems, applications) by starting a builder and waiting. About 3000
packages available, ~95% of them cross-compile properly.
autoconf, libtool, pkg-config is all handled correctly.
Before this, I tried buildroot (simple, works) and to a lesser extend
scratchbox before.
