+=head2 Cross-compile support

+Currently C<Configure> understands C<-Dusecrosscompile> option. This option
+arranges for building C<miniperl> for TARGET machine, so this C<miniperl> is
+assumed then to be copied to TARGET machine and used as a replacement of full
+C<perl> executable.
+
+This should be done litle differently. Namely C<miniperl> should be built for
+HOST and then full C<perl> with extensions should be compiled for TARGET.
the various OP structures from arenas. The SV arena code can probably be
re-used for this.
-=head2 Merge the win32 and wince codebases

-Currently, code used to build Perl on Win32 and WinCE are maintained

-probability of the code diverging when it shouldn't. Ideally, the code
-for the two systems should be merged so that common code between the two

+Currently, numerous functions look virtually, if not completely,
+identical in both C<win32/wince.c> and C<win32/win32.c> files, which can't be good.
