 Build Cross Host Tools
 ======================
 
    In order to configure a program for a Canadian Cross build, you must
 first build and install the set of cross tools you will use to build the
 program.
 
    These tools will be build cross host tools.  That is, they will run
 on the build system, and will produce code that runs on the host system.
 
    It is easy to confuse the meaning of build and host here.  Always
 remember that the build system is where you are doing the build, and the
 host system is where the resulting program will run.  Therefore, you
 need a build cross host compiler.
 
    In general, you must have a complete cross environment in order to do
 the build.  This normally means a cross compiler, cross assembler, and
 so forth, as well as libraries and include files for the host system.
