i started such a project about 3 years ago, but ultimately gave up on it (i do
still have the local code though). since i rewrote the logic in the ebuild to
support cross-compiling (via $FILESDIR/gentoo.config), i'm not aware of the
ebuild not properly building for any target.

the killer for us now is cross-compiling perl. i started hacking at that, but
then got distracted by other things. that patch though is here:
svn://wh0rd.org/perl/libperl.patch
and there is bug 134650 ...

Yeah, seen that patch. Benn looking at that myself many yers ago but didn't get very far.

I spent some more time at my openssl auto* work again and now I am
very close. It builds but I got some of the config options work so it wont
link with my app yet. Still only the ssl/ and crypto/ dirs done.
apps/ test/ and tools/ not so, these are not needed so I will skip these. No assembler code
either but PPC doesn't use any so am good anyway
