OK, that's what I needed to know. It just didn't seem as if something as complex as a cross build could be handled with just one little "TARGET=xxx". Terrible and complicated for no real gain is not my style. I like KISS. I have done scratch reloads before and can handle it just fine, it's more a time management fork in the road issue. This tells me I can allocate xxxx amount of time for a scratch reload as opposed to yyyy time for 'terrible and complicated'. It just means more console time instead of coming by once an hour for a few minutes. I'll stick with what I know will work then, and budget my time accordingly.
