At this stage there’s no libc, so no crt*.o (C run-time initialization files.) Thus the above test cannot be run. I think we’ll have to cheat by passing --build=i686-pc-gnu and removing --host. This is actually what I did in Nixpkgs: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/blob/master/pkgs/os-specific/gnu/hurd/default.nix Then the ‘build’ phase must be skipped, and the ‘install’ phase must just do ‘make install-headers’. HTH, Ludo’.
