Package: kernel-package
Version: 8.125

The CROSS_COMPILE environment variable's meaning is inconsistent 
between kernel-package & the Linux kernel source -

According to these lines from "/usr/share/kernel-package/rules", for 
build tools "XXX-tool", CROSS_COMPILE should be "XXX" -


        [...]
        KERNEL_CROSS:=$(CROSS_COMPILE)-
        [...]
        CROSS_ARG:=CROSS_COMPILE=$(KERNEL_CROSS)
        [...]


However, according to these lines from "linux/Makefile", CROSS_COMPILE 
should be "XXX-" -


        [...]
        AS              = $(CROSS_COMPILE)as
        LD              = $(CROSS_COMPILE)ld
        CC              = $(CROSS_COMPILE)gcc
        [...]


This problem is more serious than spurious warnings (#297677) since 
some external modules fail to build - either by setting CROSS_COMPILE 
"powerpc-linux" -


        [...]
        make[4]: Entering directory `/home/me/src/modules/mol/src/kmod'
        + Entering Linux
        /home/me/src/kernel/linux-2.6.10-fis-200502221/scripts/gcc-version.sh: 
line 11: powerpc-linuxgcc: command not found
        [...]


- or CROSS_COMPILE "powerpc-linux-" -


        /usr/bin/make EXTRAVERSION=-fis-200503060  
CROSS_COMPILE=powerpc-linux-- \
                                        ARCH=ppc prepare
        make[1]: powerpc-linux--gcc: Command not found


I think the meaning of CROSS_COMPILE according to kernel-package should 
be reconciled with its meaning according to the Linux kernel source.

Thanks for maintaining kernel-package!

Jack
