Re: A good way to set sub-target switch
I tried CFLAGS_FOR_TARGET, CXXFLAGS_FOR_TARGET, and
LIBCFLAGS_FOR_TARGET and LIBCXXFLAGS_FOR_TARGET but these got dropped
by libtool. I don't know if that is a feature of libtool or not.
New configuration is a bit problematic. I could not convince some of
the maintainer that Android was different enough from arm-eabi, hence
the -mandroid switch. I can do that in the local tree but it will not
be in up stream.
