Wow, that's good news !
Sure, using the same compiler as Linux people helps ;-)
Anyway, most of the trick is done by the MiNTLib itself and its UN*X 
emulation layer... That means the MiNTLib is very good !

By the way: is CC=m68k-atari-mint-gcc really useful ? Usually, it is not 
mandatory... except sometimes when the configure scripts or Makefiles 
are poorly written.

Cross-compilation rulez !
