Hello Romain,

Thanks for your work on this topic!

But the PATH environment variable that we use has $(HOST_DIR)/bin
before the system /usr/bin, and therefore our make in
$(HOST_DIR)/bin/make should be found/used by the glibc build system
instead of the system /usr/bin/make.

Why isn't this working ?

Thanks,

Thomas
