Specifying the Target
By default, the `configure' script will assume that the target is
the same as the host. This is the more common case; for example, it
leads to a native compiler rather than a cross compiler.
If you want to build a cross compilation tool, you must specify the
target explicitly by using the `--target' option when you run
`configure'. The argument to `--target' is the configuration name of
the system for which you wish to generate code. *Note Configuration
Names::.
For example, to build tools which generate code for a MIPS ELF
embedded system, you would use `--target mips-elf'.
