ok will do this in the next redo.

I'll add the text back with the CAUTION:

I can create two but it will make things very complicated. This only
will effect the qemu and user directory, but not the kernel directory.
Currently kernel directory is used for headers by these two. 

If a user wants to change this they can run the configure script in user
directory manually. 

Really I can just change it to just the option is --cc and remove the
qemu part.  That actually makes more since.

Otherwise you end up with something more complicated like having to
specify which one needs the cross compiler and not, which need this
specific gcc, just bad. Really you should be compiling both with the
same gcc anyway. If you want to do something different then you really
should go into both directories and run configure stand alone.
