Nathan, Richard: sorry if it wasn't clear: my target was a 32-bit embedded system for that I built two cross compilers to be run on two hosts -- linux32 and mingw32 --, my build system was Fedora x86_64 (with gcc -m32 and i686-w64-mingw32-gcc respectively). So Nathan's scheme was what I would have depicted: > host:linux -> some (embedded) system > host:mingw32 -> same (embedded) system
