I tried to keep use the terminology used in gdb configure documentation http://sources.redhat.com/gdb/onlinedocs/gdb_31.html " One popular reason to build several GDB configurations in separate directories is to configure GDB for cross-compiling (where GDB runs on one machine--the host---while debugging programs that run on another machine--the target). You specify a cross-debugging target by giving the `--target=target' option to `configure'.

The main problem is that I also need to compile nih and nih-dbus object is a separate directory when compiling the code generator.
