Thomas,
Nice work with the cleanup!
To further cleanup the build do you think it's worthwhile to create a
"Makefile.autotools.host.in" or just extend "Makefile.autotools.in" to
handle the various packages that do a make for the host? At a quick
glance it appears they all go thru the same steps for the host build.

Hartley
