I hate to sound like I'm just being pedantic, but as far as GCC is concerned, it's a cross-compiler. If I build a kernel for my G4 cube (Linux) on my PowerBook (Darwin), I can't simply use the Xcode version of GCC because it will create Mach-O binaries instead of ELF executables. > My description was incomplete: the compilation of a linux kernel starts > by compiling some helper programs.
