Perhaps not me. I tackled a lot of cross compiling when working on GNU
Mach and GNU Hurd, but I didn't face any big problem at that time
(probably thanks to Roland McGrath). Gordon may have more experience
than I.

I think that kind of solution would suffice. But I prefer to getting
rid of the embedded C program, if possible. As the comment says, that
was a workaround for buggy ``sed'' implementations, but there might be
a better way (e.g. using awk?).
