Since the configuration tool won't build on OS X, would it work to
configure and build eCos on a windows machine, then copy the libraries
and headers to a Mac OS X machine and do the development there with the
appropriate cross compilers? Also, would the version of gcc, etc used
on the Mac have to be the same as on the Windows computer?
Although wxWindows is a cross-platform toolkit, it is very unlikely that
the eCos Configuration Tool would "just work" on an OS X box. There are
a number of places in the source code where this tool needs to
accommodate OS features apart from the user interface.
