A few moments ago I completed cross-builds on Linux.

1. src/native-gcc.mk had to be patched to fix building native-binutils. 
Patch attached.

2. Next I've dropped the sql stuff (freetds, libodbc++, postgresql, 
sqlite) and tested the cross-compiled octave on win-xp. Works OK AFAICS.
Patch attached as well, first apply the src/native-gcc one.
(Note: I made this cs by manually editing out the src/native-gcc fix)

Maybe I have more time this weekend to find other unneeded dependencies, 
but a quick glance at the list scrolling by during the cross build 
didn't show obvious candidates.
