Then you are SOL, but that is a generic cross compile problem. Anybody
doing cross compile has to do extra steps to copy the results to the
other machine and they can take care of problems like the build symlink
themselves. The patch in 2.2.18-pre20 fixes the problem for local
compiles, which are 95%+ (SWAG) of the compiles.
