Doing a configure for cross compilation is bound to fail

Why? My gcc experience is a bit dated, but in the Mac OS X 10.0 days, gcc could configure for cross-targets almost fine already. What you need is a copy of the foreign (MinGW-)environment, of course.

The difficult part is to distinguish between binaries meant to run in the build process (helper tools) and binaries meant to run on the other architecture. But gcc's configure has mechanisms to deal with this in place, even if they might be somewhat buggy (rarely tested).

I can't see a reason why GNUstep's configure couldn't do this as well.
