change just host of cross compiler

[Marco van den Heuvel]

the m68k-*-amigaos was never merged with the main-stream gcc, the amiga 
specific toolchain was/is maintained by geek gadgets 
http://www.geekgadgets.org/, you might want to look there for changes 
need for the toolchain to work on amigaos/aros targets.
