I think binaries is more fitting than cross-compiler since the mingw
strip utility is also used.  In theory other HOST tools might be used
down the road.

I'll look into it.

The above looks at the output of the "HOSTCC -v" command.  The "Target:
XXX" strings should contain mingw regardless of the naming of HOSTCC.
How about combining the SFX detection into:


ifeq ($(HOSTOS),cygwin)
HOST_CFLAGS += -ansi
endif

#
# toolchains targeting win32 generate .exe files
#
ifneq (,$(findstring WIN32 ,$(shell echo "" | $(HOSTCC) -E -dM -)))
SFX = .exe
else
SFX =
endif

I hope:)  It looks sufficient based on my limited win32 programming
knowledge and I tested the resulting mkimage.exe to validate its
functionality.

I'll implement the os_support.[ch] idea as suggested.
