I'm not convinced that these end up on disk (this is the compilation of menuselect, which is only used to apply configuration options). In fact, this is probably the right thing to do when crosscompiling...

[Comment 2 Jaco Kroon 2012-03-30 14:17:16 UTC]

Tony is correct, the binaries for menuselect are used by the asterisk build (configuration) system which runs on the build host.  So if CHOST is honored here the build system would fail being unable to configure asterisk.  The alternative is to patch here to use CBUILD as prefix for gcc, but honestly - I suspect that that is overkill.

[Comment 3 Tony Vroon (RETIRED) 2012-06-21 10:53:56 UTC]

Based on the second opinion posted by Jaco Kroon, I am resolving this bug report. If you would like me to use CBUILD explicitly, and can show me the relevant tc-getCC equivalents, please reopen the report with a relevant explanation or patch.
