Hi there!
As seen by the latest series of tinderbox failures,
the rescue/ stuff breaks cross compiles. The problem
is that some bits like bin/sh have the so-called
"build tools". These are small utilities not normally
visible in the world except during the build stage.
As such, "make buildworld" builds them in the native
host's environment (using the host compiler, headers,
libraries, and binutils). The /rescue should have
such a target too (build-tools), that would in effect
call the build-tools targets in all makefiles that
have it, e.g. bin/sh/Makefile.
Cheers,
