Building LibVNCServer-0.6 for m68k-rtems

[Mark Mussetter]

I have some questions about building LibVNCServer-0.6 for RTEMS.  I'm not 
very experienced with makefiles or configure so these questions might be 
pretty basic.

Our system:
target = Motorola Coldfire 5272
host = Cygwin (running on a Windows XP machine)

My questions are in regards to the --host, --target, and --build options to 
configure.

I would assume that to get LibVNCServer to build a library that I could 
link in to my RTEMS application, I would need to specify 
--target=m68k-rtems.  However, when I do this, configure finds and invokes 
the standard gcc compiler from my usr/bin directory in the Cygwin tree.

I have tried all of the combinations of --build, --host, and --target 
options and it seems that the only way I can get configure to find and use 
the m68k-rtems compiler to build LibVNCServer is if I specify 
"--host=m68k-rtems" on the command line to ./configure.

It doesn't seem right to me to specify the --host variable.

Can anyone tell me how I need to set the --host, --build, and --target options?

Thanks,
