Bram is the right person to send it to. His to do list is massive, but if you update your runtime files and do :help todo.txt you will find this on it: "Patch for configure.in to support cross-compiling: Marc Haisenko, 2007 Sep 24. Again 2007 Dec 12 Some more from Philip Prindeville, 2007 Dec 18." Thus he will get around to it when he has the time, and when he does, it will be accepted, or accepted with modifications, or you'll be contacted to address one issue or another. I believe he is particularly careful about making changes to the build process of Vim, because it needs to work on so many systems. Ben.
