That's a good idea, and is what I will be aiming at. Basicaly, ./configure
will try to find appropriate tools, which the user can overide using command
line options like --with-xxx=/some/where/xxx and then crosstool-NG main
script will add symlinks to this tools in a well known directory, and
add this directory first in the PATH.

Thank you for the idea!
