Howdy, Can someone please add to the website the information about the Haiku cross compiler per Michael Lotz's explanation shown below? Thanks!

Yep, the link is http://haiku.mlotz.ch/haiku_cross_compiler_bone_2.95.3-haiku-080323.zip. The description would be something like: Download the Haiku cross-compiler and extract it to "/boot" (for example by setting the "Destination" in Expander to just "/boot"). Then you need to configure your tree to use this cross compiler. You do that by invoking the configure script with the "cross-tools-prefix" option like this: "configure --cross-tools-prefix /boot/apps/haiku/cross-tools/bin/i586-pc-haiku-". Be careful to include all of the string up to and including the last dash, as all the cross compiler tools have this prefix (they are for example called "i586-pc-haiku-ar"). You need to specify this prefix everytime you run configure. You could simply put the link into the development tools section and put the text into http://www.haiku-os.org/documents/dev/getting_the_source_code. Note that this all only applies for BeOS based Haiku development. Under Linux you don't need this cross-compiler, as you always build it yourself.
