+                    For an Autotools-based project, you can use the
+                    cross-toolchain by just passing the appropriate host
+                    option to <filename>configure.sh</filename>.
+                    The host option you use is derived from the name of the
+                    environment setup script found in the directory in which
+                    you installed the cross-toolchain.
+                    For example, the host option for an ARM-based target that
+                    uses the GNU EABI is
+                    <filename>armv5te-poky-linux-gnueabi</filename>.
+                    You will notice that the name of the script is

+                    Thus, the following command works to update your project

-
-            <para>
-                For an Autotools-based project, you can use the cross-toolchain
-                by just passing the appropriate host option to
-                <filename>configure.sh</filename>.
-                The host option you use is derived from the name of the
-                environment setup script found in the directory in which you
-                installed the cross-toolchain.
-                For example, the host option for an ARM-based target that uses
-                the GNU EABI is <filename>armv5te-poky-linux-gnueabi</filename>.
-                You will notice that the name of the script is
-                <filename>environment-setup-armv5te-poky-linux-gnueabi</filename>.
-                Thus, the following command works to update your project and
-                rebuild it using the appropriate cross-toolchain tools:
-                <literallayout class='monospaced'>
-     $ ./configure --host=armv5te-poky-linux-gnueabi \
-        --with-libtool-sysroot=<replaceable>sysroot_dir</replaceable>
-                </literallayout>
-                <note>
-                    If the <filename>configure</filename> script results in
-                    problems recognizing the
-                    <filename>--with-libtool-sysroot=</filename><replaceable>sysroot-dir</replaceable>
-                    option, regenerate the script to enable the support by
-                    doing the following and then run the script again:
-                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
-     $ libtoolize --automake

+                    For this example, the Makefile contains two lines that
+                    can be used to set the <filename>CC</filename> variable.
+                    One line is identical to the value that is set when you
+                    run the SDK environment setup script, and the other line
+                    sets <filename>CC</filename> to "gcc", the default GNU
+                    compiler on the build host:
+                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
+     # CC=i586-poky-linux-gcc  -m32 -march=i586 --sysroot=/opt/poky/2.5/sysroots/i586-poky-linux

+     clean:

+                    <emphasis>Make the Project:</emphasis>
+                    Use the <filename>make</filename> command to create the
+                    binary output file.
+                    Because variables are commented out in the Makefile,
+                    the value used for <filename>CC</filename> is the value
+                    set when the SDK environment setup file was run:
+                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
+     $ make
+     i586-poky-linux-gcc  -m32 -march=i586 --sysroot=/opt/poky/2.5/sysroots/i586-poky-linux -I . -c main.c

+                    </literallayout>
+                    From the results of the previous command, you can see that
+                    the compiler used was the compiler established through
+                    the <filename>CC</filename> variable defined in the
+                    setup script.</para>

+                    environment variable with the same variable as set from
+                    the Makefile by uncommenting the line in the Makefile
+                    and running <filename>make</filename> again.
+                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>
+     $ make clean

+     gcc main.o module.o -o target_bin
+                    </literallayout>
+                    As shown in the previous example, the cross-toolchain
+                    compiler is not used.
+                    Rather, the default compiler is used.</para>
+
+                    <para>This next case shows how to override a variable

+                    Go into the Makefile and re-insert the comment character
+                    so that running <filename>make</filename> uses
+                    the established SDK compiler.
+                    However, when you run <filename>make</filename>, use a
+                    command-line argument to set <filename>CC</filename>
+                    to "gcc":
+                    <literallayout class='monospaced'>

+                    <para>In this last case, edit Makefile again to use the
