While I agree with all the above, I would very much like to be able to compile GTA04 binaries on my x86_64 multi-core notebook. I can do it easily for the kernel, but that is made much easier by the lack of external dependencies - no libraries to link with. I tried once - having a Debian/arm distro in a directory somewhere and setting up all the various paths, but I couldn't make it work. Does anyone know how to do this? (most of my user-space code is python which doesn't need compiling, but a few bits are C and I would *really* like to be able to "make install" and it would build arm version and scp them over.)
