I had a problem earlier with Kbuild ignoring ARCH if CROSS_COMPILE wasn't set, but can't reproduce with the current kernel, but I also started out with upgrading it from .26, since squeezes .32 doesn't work on Soekris net4501. So this is no longer an issue. The other reason for make it dependent on CROSS_COMPILE at least to begin with is that the ARCH -> debarch translation table doesn't have to be as complete since it doesn't break anything in the currently working non-cross compile senario. If this doesn't matter then I will send a new patch, that doesn't depend on CROSS_COMPILE being set. I have CC'ed the debian-kernel list, for people not on LKML: https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/296182/ -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kbuild" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
