Sorry, but that is plain wrong. You did not fully understand the problem I
described. The "-lcrypt" target is _not_ looked up in the staging area
_regardless_ how you specify CC. You may not have encountered this problem so
far as there are almost no Makefiles using this syntax. If some Makefile uses
"-l<lib>" as dependency, the Makefile is _not cross-compilable_ unless you
patch GNU make. The patches I attached solve the issue.

Regards,

Christoph Schulz
