I spoke a bit too soon - sorry for the noise. 'with_cross_host' is
defined if 'is_cross_compiler' is true, which is true if 'host!=target'.
This is not the case for a "pure" native build as well as a crossed-native
build. My remarks were a panic reaction to the generated scripts and
Makefiles for a crossed-native build.
I have submitted a patch for review that addresses most of the issues
I have been having with crossed and crossed-native compilation of libgcj.
Sincerely Yours,
Ranjit.
