This would be really good. I have basically given up for now because getting 
the eggs to build under openembedded seems like essentially a re-write of 
each egg. If you have anything you want to test in the openembedded 
cross-compiling environment let me know.

Another possibility would be a dump mode that dumps out a GNU configure ready 
environment. I have seen the autoconf ready howto in the wiki - if that was 
extended to include eggs then that should accommodate targeting handhelds and 
other difficult platforms.
