Re: cross build for OS lion

[Peica <peica at qq dot com>]

Hi Yann E. MORIN and All,

Sorry for the wrong patch.

I need to add these line into scripts/crosstool-NG to avoid the wrong choice for compiler. 
If not, the script would call the Xcode gcc by default. and it cause the target compiler 
crash at runtime.

    case "${CT_TOOLCHAIN_TYPE}" in
        cross)
            # A cross-compiler runs on the same machine it is built on
            CT_HOST="${CT_BUILD}"
	    
            CT_HOST_PREFIX="${CT_BUILD_PREFIX}"		// i add 
            CT_HOST_SUFFIX="${CT_BUILD_SUFFIX}"		// i add
            
            build_mangle="build_"
            host_mangle="build_"
            target_mangle=""
            install_build_tools_for="BUILD HOST"
            ;;
        canadian)
            build_mangle="build_"
            host_mangle="host_"
            target_mangle=""
            install_build_tools_for="BUILD HOST TARGET"
            ;;
        *)  CT_Abort "No code for '${CT_TOOLCHAIN_TYPE}' toolchain type!"
            ;;
    esac


Another problem is to build the gdb in static way(script/build/debug/300-gdb.sh). Please refer here if it make sense to you,

    if [ "${CT_GDB_CROSS}" = "y" ]; then
        local -a cross_extra_config
        local gcc_version

        CT_DoStep INFO "Installing cross-gdb"
        CT_DoLog EXTRA "Configuring cross-gdb"

        mkdir -p "${CT_BUILD_DIR}/build-gdb-cross"
        cd "${CT_BUILD_DIR}/build-gdb-cross"

        cross_extra_config=("${extra_config[@]}")
        case "${CT_THREADS}" in
            none)   cross_extra_config+=("--disable-threads");;
            *)      cross_extra_config+=("--enable-threads");;
        esac

        CC_for_gdb=
        LD_for_gdb=
        if [ "${CT_GDB_CROSS_STATIC}" = "y" ]; then
            CC_for_gdb="gcc -static"      // should we use "${CT_HOST}-gcc static" to replace here?
            LD_for_gdb="ld -static"   // should we use "${CT_HOST}-ld -static" to replace here?
        fi
