[BUG] coreutils-6.12 "ginstall" bug

[Deepak Barua]

Hi Everybody,
                   I was just cross compiling my MIPS64 platform  when i
noticed a major error in coreutils - 6.12 the "src/ginstall" which is
compiled , is compiled in the target architecture instead of the host , so i
had to recompile coreutils in host architecture and copy the "ginstall"
binary to "src/ginstall" overwriting the target arch "ginstall" and then the
"make install" commmand worked fine and coreutils was installed .

I saw that "ginstall" is a coreutils replacement for "install" , the thing i
don't understand is why , whats wrong with using "install" ...?

I would like to help resolve this issue.

Regards
Deepak
