I'd say no, but others will likely disagree :-)

string.c will need to be compiled twice, once for the host, once
for the build (if performing a canadian cross).  There's sample
rules in the Makefile.in to do this.

Note you may need a little sed command to change config.h to hconfig.h
when compiling it for the host (using gcc backwards gcc terminology)
