Hi,

ct-ng's documentation states that there are four type of compiler --
cross, native, cross-native, and Canadian -- and that it can build all
four types.  We're attempting to build a mative GCC toolchain, on x86_64
Linux, which has no underlying dependencies on the host distribution, and
ct-ng seemed to be the ideal tool for the job.

'Native' is only selectable if you enable experiemntal features in
menuconfig, and the code doesn't work as shipped.  Is this something that
will be fixed in the nearish future?  How much work would it be to add
support?

Thanks.
