+Dependencies are needed for cross compilation
+=============================================
+
+In order to successfully cross-compile Kaffe, you will need to

+It's easiest to cross compile all dependencies using the same
+--prefix to configure their builds, so that all the dependencies
+end up being installed in the same directory hierachy.
+
+When configuring kaffe for cross-compilation, you'll need to
+tell Kaffe's configure script where to look for the cross-compiled
+libraries using --with-includes and --with-libs options to point
+Kaffe to the include and library files, respectively. You'll also
+need to set the environment variable PKG_CONFIG_PATH to point to
+the location of the .pc files for the cross-compiled libraries.
