Thanks for the help!
I've taken a stab at most of it. I'm hoping most of the config file edits
I've done are correct. However, when compiling binutils, or more
specifically ld, the build script crashes. I'm still having an issue with
generating the eelf_x86_64_haiku.c and the eelf_x86_64_haiku.o files in
haiku/generated/cross-tools-build/binutils/ld
I'm pretty positive it's probably some issue in the
haiku/generated/cross-tools-build/binutils/ld/Makefile
script. Hopefully in a few hours I can have binutils atleast compiling.
Fingers crossed.
