Everyone,

I apologize for my previous patch submission (8/23/2013 set of patches) 
without any background information.  I am looking to cross compile audit 
for the ARM and PPC platforms.  I am not sure if this has been looked into 
before but I would get some feedback on a general approach. 

I tried to do a base cross compile but I ran into an issue when the table 
header files are generated, the executable generated by the makefile were 
built for the target and not the host.  I modified the makefile to build 
them for the host but I realized the executables would pull in the headers 
from the host rather than the target.  I attempted to work around this by 
porting the gen_tables.c algorithm to a python script to duplicate the 
header file generation using the target headers rather than the host.  Is 
this a good approach?  Is there a better way that this could be done a 
better way that does not use python?  Is this a desired feature?

Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Clayton
