Hello,

I've been cross-compiling X.org with a bunch of dirty hacks done after  
configure. Something like this was required for libX11:

         configure_package $2

         begin_operation "Fix compilation of non-installed utilities"

         for i in src/util; do
                 sed -i -e "s/ppc_82xx-//" -e "s/ppc-linux-//" \
                         -e "s/LIBTOOL = .*/LIBTOOL = \$\(SHELL\) libtool/"\
                          $i/Makefile
                 test_failure
         done

Basically I'm stripping out the cross-compiler prefix from the  
Makefile. However I don't remember what is the purpose of the LIBTOOL  
hack. :D
