Using CFLAGS with a cross-compiler

[Chris Johns]

hi

I am tring to build a m68k-coff cross-compiler on Linux using a linix
egcs native compiler. I decided to build to the cross-compiler with
extra flags to enable i686 code. The command was :

  make CFLAGS="-m686 -O3"

The build failed when the just built cross-compiler (xgcc) was invoked
to compile SYSCALLS.c with the "-m686" flags.

Is this correct behaviour and my use of the flags is incorrect ?

The egcs version is:

$ gcc -v
Reading specs from
/ods/egcs/lib/gcc-lib/i586-pc-linux-gnulibc1/egcs-2.90.16/specs
gcc version egcs-2.90.16 971105 (gcc2-970802 experimental)

Thanks
