I dunno what's wrong with gcc crosscompiler builds, no problem on
linux, but even on solaris it got stuck somewhere in between (etc/?)
creating a nice tcsh fork-bomb - and tcsh is not mentioned in any
program in the $PATH. And even with the binutils-patch applied (as
being shipped near libsdl/Xmingw32) and after a couple of killall
series - it occured that later I had to edit some Makefiles a couple
of times to do the right thing - that's somehow releated to this
intermediate-compiler being build that will finally compile a 
compiler that is a crosscompiler, or something like this ;-) ... well,
on a four-cpu sparc-server it took me three hours to get at a decent 
crosscompiler for solaris->mingw32 but lucky man, I can now use some
`make --jobs=4` on our machine .... woooosh.... :-)=)
