It's been pointed out to me that Khem very much knows of crosstool and
its ilk, being a committer of some standing.
I apologize for not looking back upthread enough to get a full sense
of what was being discussed. Sorry for the noise.
I would still suggest that tools like ct-ng are still valuable even
from a "learning" point of view: it provides a good view into
prerequisite and target-side libraries, and (when run) logs the series
of operations required to build a useful toolchain.
Thanks,
Tony.
