Here we are! :-) So far I’ve only tested with “simple” cases, namely GMP/MPFR/MPC, and it all cross-builds correctly for mips64el-linux-gnu (N32). I’ve changed hydra.scm so that Hydra cross-builds a few packages for us. Probably package definitions and perhaps build systems will need to be adjusted to allow cross-compilation of more packages, but the foundations are in place. Comments and bug reports welcome!
