So, while working on this I’ve found some cases where build-script-impl is a bit sloppy about naming: we use the term “deployment target” quite a lot, both when talking about hosts for the swift compiler and standard library targets.
This leads to weird parts of the script - like in testing, where we iterate STDLIB_DEPLOYMENT_TARGETS but skip everything which isn’t also a host. Somebody got confused between deployment targets. Or in the lipo step, where we attempt to merge libraries across different hosts for some reason. There are other general logic holes - such as the swift build targets getting calculated once in some free-standing code, when really they should be calculated per-host, or executables being looked for in the current host build output (rather than the local host build output). So I’ve cut away my specific cross-compiling edits from these more general fixes and created a PR for those changes: https://github.com/apple/swift/pull/2497 <https://github.com/apple/swift/pull/2497> I know it’s quite a big diff, and that cross-compilation isn’t a massive priority, but I’d really like to incorporate feedback and, if possible, get it merged as soon as possible. No parameters or output has been changed (e.g. the host-specific install locations aren’t in there), so for the case today where you don’t cross-compile the tools, everything should resolve as it does today.
