> Not sure if this is a bug or something I'm doing wrong, but when I

> It looks like the newly built grep is being used, but it won't run on
> the host.  This looks like it is from cfg.mk:

> export PATH := $(builddir)/src$(PATH_SEPARATOR)$(PATH)

> It doesn't seem particularly harmful, but maybe that PATH change should
> depend on whether it's a cross build or not.
