     * RPL/2 cross compilation :
   
       To cross-compile RPL/2, you have to build in a first time a native
       RPL/2 on build host. Installation is not required. In a second time,
       you have to configure RPL/2 for target host in another directory like :
   
   ../rpl/configure --host=arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi --enable-full-static
   --with-sysroot=/home/bertrand/x-tools/arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi/arm-unknown-linux-gnueabi/sysroot
   --without-mysql --without-postgresql --without-x
   --with-rpltools=/home/bertrand/cvs/rpl/build --with-openssl-arch=linux-generic32
   
       Of course, you have to configure OpenSSL with --with-openssl-arch.
