I have no clue actually - never used a cross compiler.
But after looking at gengenrtl in the Makefiles, I'd guess
that it is build with the cross compiler and thus won't
run on the box that is compiling the new compiler.

They use HOST_CC for that.  When HOST_CC is not set,
it is set to the value of CC.  So I suppose you need to
set HOST_CC somehow.  Maybe setting an environment variable
would work, not sure if then make will use that value.

Hope this helps.
