It appears to be as simple as setting : TARGET, and TARGET_ARCH. I'd appreciate any comments/hints on how to go : about the build. It is almost that simple. However, binutils doesn't support generating 64-bit targets with 32-bit hosts. Until binutils does, you are not going to make this work. I've have some MIPS stuff that is lurking in my personal tree and need to get back to the cross building problem.
