runit not ready for cross-compilation

Hi,

I'm trying to make runit run on my arm-based PDA. There's a problem that I 
have to cross-compile runit on my i686 host and it doesn't work. To be more 
specific, it works until the point where it tries to run some compiled 
program...

...
./compile sig_pause.c
./compile wait_nohang.c
./compile wait_pid.c
./makelib byte.a byte_chr.o byte_copy.o byte_cr.o byte_diff.o \
byte_rchr.o fmt_uint.o fmt_uint0.o fmt_ulong.o scan_ulong.o str_chr.o \
str_diff.o str_len.o str_start.o
./chkshsgr || ( cat warn-shsgr; exit 1 )
/bin/sh: ./chkshsgr: cannot execute binary file
./compile fifo.c
...

The root of this problem is that you have to distinguish between host (build) 
machine and target machine arch. Only single conf-cc and stuff simply isn't 
enough. The same for ./compile script and so on.

Could you please fix this to compile all build-time executables (for checking 
stuff) using compiler1 and the target executables using compiler2? I would do 
it myself but I got lost in your build system... :-(

Thanks
