Of course - I just meant for people who just want to use the resulting
toolchain, not maintaining the toolchains

BTW I now have a .dmg containing binaries for basic GNU tools that
allows to create a crosstool-ng on OSX, along with a basic shell
script to start configure and ct-ng with the right options on the
right prefixes.

Would you be interested in releasing it on crosstool-ng website, for
OSX users who want to quickly get into crosstools-ng with the macports
step?
