On <https://veracrypt.fr/en/Home.html>, I see there's a version
VeraCrypt 1.24-Update8 with bug fixes.

I'm surprised (setenv "CC" "gcc") was necessary, because src/Makefile
sets "export CC ?= gcc".

Use (cc-for-target) instead of "gcc" to make veracrypt cross-compilable.
The makefile uses "g++" in some places, shis might need to be (g++-for-target)
instead.

The makefile adds -maes, -msse2 and -msse3 on i*86 and x86_64.  You might
want to check these are normally available on all i686 CPUs.

The makefile calls "uname -m" to determine the architecture that's it being
compiled for, while that command determines the architecture of the build
machine.

There's a bunch of files in src/Boot/EFI that look like binary files.
These need to be removed or built from source.

src/Boot/Bios.h has a line ‘ Copyright (c) 2008-2012 TrueCrypt Developers 
Association and which is governed
 by the TrueCrypt License 3.0.’
That license is non-free according to 
http://directory.fsf.org/wiki/License:TrueCrypt.
That line appears in other source files as well.


Greetings,
