How to build a cross-ld that behaves like a native ld?

[Jon Ringle]

Hello,

I'm building a cross toolchain for use inside scratchbox 
(http://scratchbox.org). One thing that scratchbox does is go to great pains 
to make your cross toolchain looks and acts like a native toolchain. One 
thing that they did in previous versions of binutils is to patch 
ld/genscripts.sh so that NATIVE=yes. This approach doesn't seem to work with 
binutils-2.16.1.

Can I get any advice as to how I can generate a cross ld that acts like a 
native ld in terms of how it searches for libraries.

Thanks,

Jon
