That's a huge progress, I thought it would require month's !

CPU flags should never be hardcoded. They should use the CPU flags from the

Usually, it is because some library is missing, then the linking of 
configure tests fails. You can see what happens in the config.log file.


The most important thing is to be able to rebuild the whole SpareMiNT

Mark, can you currently rebuild everything (the working packages) without 
human assistance ?
