I'm okay with that, though if you keep looking at black magic, you
might get annoyed enough to make it nicer. :p

Nice work!

Recapping from an earlier mail -- I like the androgenizer approach,
because it can generate an Android.mk set that is usable to build NDK
packages as well. I feel that this provides a more consistent build
environment for your NDK as well (mostly compiler flags being
consistent). That said, there are enough projects that work just fine
crosscompiling directly for NDK packages for this to not be a big
problem.

(for those who aren't familiar with Android, my build changes are
mainly useful to build PulseAudio as part of the Android OS image
itself. The NDK I refer to above is for using this same system to
build libpulse/PA for bundling in Android apps)
