I was thinking hppa32 might be, but hppa2.0 is supposed to be hppa-xxx with -mpa-risc-2-0. But anyway, I think being clever and removing unused stuff is likely orthogonal to the first patch which is just making it all work. > > > CROSS_COMPILE ?= $(shell $(CC) -dumpmachine | sed > > > 's/^hppa[^-]*-/hppa64-/') > > > > > > don't even need the ifeq check then > > > > How is that different from Carlos' suggestion? > > sorry, but i'm not seeing any e-mails from Carlos in this thread. what is his > suggestion ?

CROSS_COMPILE gets automatically defined by the top level Makefile ... that's why we need a check for empty not a check for not defined.
