Lol, +1. I've never had a problem with a native build on a device,
even if it is slower.

Cross-compiling is the pits. Constant problems with authors hijacking
CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS, CXXFLAGS and LDFLAGS for their own use, which blows
away the cross-compile environment we setup for the build. It is a
battle just to get them to use AM_CFLAGS (and friends) and leave
CFLAGS (and friends) alone. It's very annoying to lose your C compiler
and --sysroot because of a shoddy configure.ac.
