[kaffe] Question on cross compiling with static libraries

[Kim, Seong Beom]

Dear Kaffe members,

I'm using Kaffe CVS source and trying to cross-compile it with the following configuration,

Host: i386-linux (RedHat 7.3)
Target: mips-linux (RedHat 7.1)
Configuration command:
CC=mips-linux-gcc CXX=mips-linux-c++ ./configure --with-engine=intrp --target=mips-pc-linux-gnu --host=mips-pc-linux-gnu --build=mips-pc-linux-gnu --with-includes=/usr/mips-linux/include --with-libraries=/usr/mips-linux/lib --with-awt=qt --with-qtdir=/home/sbkim/work/qte-3.0.6 --with-jikes=/home/sbkim/bin/jikes --disable-debug --with-staticlib


After the configuration, I tried the 'make' but faced the following linker errors.

mips-linux-gcc -g -O2 -fno-omit-frame-pointer -o kaffe-bin main.o version.o .libs/kaffe-binS.o -Wl,--export-dynamic  ../../libraries/clib/native/.libs/libnative.a -L/home/sbkim/work/qte-3.0.6/lib ../../libraries/clib/net/.libs/libnet.a ../../libraries/clib/io/.libs/libio.a ../../libraries/clib/zip/.libs/libzip.a -L/usr/mips-linux/lib -lz ../../libraries/clib/math/.libs/libmath.a -lgmp ../../libraries/clib/management/.libs/libmanagement.a ../../libraries/clib/security/.libs/libsecurity.a ../../libraries/extensions/microsoft/clib/.libs/libmicrosoft.a ../../libraries/clib/awt/qt/.libs/libawt.a ../kaffevm/.libs/libkaffevm.a -ldl -lm -lqte-mt -Wl,--rpath -Wl,/usr/mips-linux/lib

Because libqte-mt.a refers functions in libpthread.a and libjpeg.a, those errors are natural and can easily be avoided only if I can specify proper libraries.
The question I have is how to do it elegantly. ;-)
Of course, I can hack configure and configure.in file to my taste but I would like to know a better way.

Please let me know the tips.
Thanks in advance.

Best Regards.
