i'll have to double check the endian (istr it being broken), but bitness is 
most definitely broken.  this issue was posted over a year and a half ago.

tools/envcrc.c does sizeof(unsigned long) using the host compiler.  if the 
host is 64bit, that is "8".  if the target is 32bit, that is "4".  not going 
to work.
