#164559 - Cheap native compiler normally equals cheap cross-compiler
Responding to: ???'s previous message
If I can find a cheap native compiler for a target, then it is likely that I can find a cheap cross-compiler too.

The reason for a $5k compiler is because you consider it significantly better than the other compilers and have decided that you need that extra edge.
