[syslinux] Cross-compiling syslinux

[Richard H Lee]

I would like to know if it is possible to cross compile syslinux for a 
different architecture than the host (given a suitable toolchain)?

I know currently the build system does not differentiate host and target 
as stated in build.mk . However I can see in the main Makefile the 
targets seem to be split into two groups: binary components and 
installer components.

I was wondering if it were possible to specify one toolchain in 
syslinux.mk for the binary components and only building them. And then 
doing another run with the host toolchain, this time only building the 
installer part?

I had a look at the win32 Makefile, but it seems to use a completely 
difference procedure.
