Personally, I view cross-compiling as an extreme form of "doing it the hard way". More power to you guys who are prepared to put time and effort into getting it to build the applications, but for me it doesn't scratch any of my itches. Some of us (well, me at least) are only here so that we can build on something other than i686. I can certainly see the attractions in cross-compiling the whole system for things like arm, but on a modern desktop machine I've got enough problems getting it all working at all, and my machines can build their applications reasonably quickly . So, for the moment I'm sticking with CLFS-1. Having said that, I'm keen to play with uclibc, but I never seem to find the time - hopefully, 0.9.29 will be released by the time I get to it (or even 0.9.30 with the nptl stuff).
