And all three of build, host, and target different is what is called a "Canadian cross". The main difficulty with doing cross-built native is that many checks for native compilers only work on the systems themselves, and do not usually have a convenient way to override that either. It's a fight you cannot win, just build your native compilers on the system itself, everyone else does! Segher
