HOST-x-TARGET == cross-compiler
native-HOST == native compiler
BUILD-build native-HOST == native compiler built by cross-compiler
BUILD-build HOST-x-TARGET == cross-compiler built by cross-compiler
The BUILD-build system is of course only relevant when discussing
building the compiler, and becomes irrelevant once the compiler
exists.
In this case the end result is an x86-build native-MIPS compiler.
This requires first building an x86-x-MIPS copmiler. Of course in
practice it matters whether x86 here is Windows or GNU/Linux; I can't
remember whether the OP said.
