So,  i've been rather bored recently; I figure, why not try and get
haiku running on my mac? How hard can it be?


Inspired by Duane I tried to build for ppc as well last night. :-)
I tried on OpenSolaris snv_93 just to find out that it works for neither ppc nor x86. There are no compile errors but it ends with some emptyish output, followed by:
The compiler specified as Haiku target compiler is not a valid Haiku cross-compiler. Please see ReadMe.cross-compile. 

That was for: `../configure --build-cross-tools-gcc4 ppc ../../buildtools/`
And no Jamfile got generated in the folder.

Do I have to add Solaris host support somewhere? If yes, where?
take a look at these changes, they can be a good starting point for adding Solaris: r26583, r26584, r26588, r26589, r26590, r26585 and r26587. 

Best Regards,
Karsten
