Right now, the 1st sentence of the wiki page is, "Cross compiling is
supported by CMake starting with version 2.6.0 (not yet released as of
July 2007)."  Reading that, I have no idea how valid these docs are
for CMake 2.4.7.  If they differ significantly, that's a problem.


Uuuh and I'm guilty of some kind of late night dyslexia where 2.4.6
has something to do with 2.6.0.  Too many sixes.  8-)

I notice that the documentation that ships with CMake does not contain
any information on either cross-compiling or CPack.  They are on the
wiki however.  I thought it difficult to find the link about
cross-compiling amidst the verbiage for various tutorials, so I moved
it to the "Development" section.  Now that CMake has full
cross-compilation support, that's a more appropriate place for it.

I would suggest that the cross-compilation documentation on the wiki
be updated, and vetted by the community, so that whatever goes into
the CMake book is as accurate and bug free as possible.
