From bcc3cbb93e5d03e659a3f2a8b23f0f3ac49db010 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dylan Baker Date: Tue, 16 Jan 2018 09:15:16 -0800 Subject: dependencies: Allow setting config-tool binaries in cross file This allows for much easier cross compiler configuration for tools like LLVM. This patch does honor the 'native' keyword, and falls back to searching PATH if the binary name is not specified. I'd be fine with either removing the fallback behavior, or marking it as deprecated and removing it later.
