Anyway, here's a try to make it autodetect m68k-linux-gnu-gcc and m68k-linux-gcc. Perhaps it can be generalized in kbuild, to allow arch/*/Makefile to set a list of possible cross-compiler prefixes?
Here is my first try. We only touch CROSS_COMPILE is empty and building for another arch. I can obviously move crossgcc part of this to core kbuild. Any better name?
