I think I've found a general problem when building a cross-compiler.

Some of the GNU C source modules (e.g. c-common.c) will #include 
"config.h" which is the config file for the machine that hosts the 
compiler but will make use of macros (e.g. ASM_OUTPUT_SECTION_NAME) which 
should really be taken from the "tconfig.h" file in the context in which 
they are used because it should really be testing if the target machine 
defines this macro.

This type of problem seems to occur a number of times.  Is this really a 
problem or have I missed something ?

Thanks

Martin
