No. It won't built completely, but only through the first kernel
files that are needed (at least in the checked in tree). I had things
further, but lost them in a disk crash. I've not had the time to
revisit it since then.
I defintely will have to try this again after these changes. If it
can't be made to work, this is a huge deal... However, the current
build tree isn't careful enough to distinguish between host run
programs and target programs, which is why we're having this problem.
I suspect that making this work will make cross building easier (and
vice versa).
