Wow, this seems _much_ simpler. Once you get the toolchain
installed, all you have to do is set ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE
appropriately?

I guess the question remains for Andrew. Since I pretty much did
all the work needed to update his cross-compiler repo, is there
still value in it?

Or shall we just recommend emdebian to everyone? :)

Thanks.
