I'm not quite sure I understand the problem.  Given the build, host,
and target systems, we're using the build system to compile f771, which
will run on the host system and generate code for the target system.

How do we know f771, which we've built to run on the host system, will
run on the build system?

I.e. for cross-compiles, or criss-cross (aka Canadian cross) compiles,
how will this work?  I mean, we could build two copies of f771, one
that'll run on the build system, and have it tell us target-system
info, but that'd make the build take a lot longer.

Maybe I'm missing something?
