According to a suggestion by an autoconf developer, I think we should change the build system in this way:
- Use "host" to represent an environment in which utilities (tools) run. This is a natural interpretation of the meaning of "host" in autoconf. - Use "target" to represent a native environment in which the grub kernel and modules run. This is not very natural, but a bit easier to understand. - Use CPPFLAGS, CFLAGS, LDFLAGS, etc. for the "host". This is more intuitive. - Use TARGET_CPPFLAGS, TARGET_CFLAGS, etc. for the "target". Usually, the user does not need to tweak these flags manually, so they are not necessary to be very intuitive. If there is no objection, I will work on this issue very soon.
