cross compile libc

> Is it possible to do cross-builds of FreeBSD under OS X?

  I've not tried it but am certain it won't work. The cross-build 
environment expects to run on a FreeBSD 5.x/6.x-based machine since it 
requires certain versions of make etc during the cross-tools 
bootstrapping phase.

  NetBSD have done the work required to get their cross-build system to 
run on a number of non-NetBSD host systems, OSX included, so in theory 
it should be possible for FreeBSD to head in this direction if so required.

  But hey, my goal is to get you running FreeBSD on your Apple so it 
won't be necessary :)

later,

Peter.
