We would hope that someday it will build out of the box! Unfortunately, the
current setup requires a bit of digging in, and for some reason, it seems
to be a daunting task for many.
That's one great thing about the one-tree build that RedHat/Cygnus uses,
no hassle builds for a myriad a of host-target combos. And that's why
embedded system developers pay for commercial support, the cost of which
may seem atrocious when you first see it, but you soon find out that it's
well worth it.
