Cross compile
{moan}
In this day and age, you would think that cross compiling would be something that has become a shade easier than : uberhacker skills required.
Unfortunately, notsomuch.

Someday, for fun - try this : build for target ppc64, using distcc and hosts running x8, x86_64, ppc and ppc64. Your time starts now!

Yep, we are far from it, there are lot of issues; especially all the optimization a compiler needs to do for the target instruction set. The only thing which does come close to this is the JVM, though that is also an interesting discussion, at an abstract level. .NET 2.0 improves this, but again one might argue the word "platform" there, however those familiar with Windows, know there is a huge difference between the various Windows flavours (which if I may add is also one of the cause for some of the pain faced by Window users).
