(Perhaps you were hoping to inspire the reader's curiosity - let ./configure decide ... hmmm, I wonder what ./configure would decide - well the help must explain it. Ah!) In any event, please take my feedback as a suggestion for possible improvement, not yelling. I think we all appreciate the tremendous amount of work and effort you and others put into tools like crosstool-ng. It is an artifact that represents probably tens of thousands of man hours of work and experience, especially for a task like building gcc. One could compare it to the fancy remote controlled augers with video equipment they bring in to free clogged sewers - "high tech" for what otherwise would be a disgusting chore. Always keep in mind that the community appreciates your efforts. ?- Godmar -- For unsubscribe information see http://sourceware.org/lists.html#faq
