Maybe you could use emulation to finish or is it a different issue? Anyway I might be missing some bits, but I wanted to suggest about empbuilder, it makes no sense to me, but an option on Debian's pbuilder & sbuilder & friends (-a $arch) makes more sense if not already there. >> 3.

I am happy with the removal of emsetup and emchain, also removing emdebian-tools functionality of adding emdebian unstable sources.list will make me happier as it has caused some trouble on lenny. I think I can maintain within toolchains a 'check my cross-toolchain is installed and works' function, via build-cross-essential or gcc-cross-defaults.
