Re: Hard-coded paths to crt1.o and the like

[Dan Nicolaescu]

I've cross-compiled emacs recently.  It does not work out of the box,
but it's not too hard to hack it to make it work. 

>From what I remember src/prefix-args does not work because it is built
with the cross-compiler instead of the host compiler (and maybe there
was some other binary that needed the same thing).

But after you build "temacs", you need either a simulator or a real
machine to dump the image.

Patches are welcome!
