I have set up a cross compiler but if I use ~arm in the ACCEPT_KEYWORDS in
/usr/armv4tl-softfloat-linux-gnueabi/etc/make.conf, it wants to pull in
packages for the host system (baselayout, openrc and e2fsprogs-lib) which
are masked by ~amd64. Is there any reason for this? It seems that the host
package version has to match the cross compiled package version. I thought
the crossdev environment would be independent? Is there something that I am
missing (or have done wrong)?

Regards,

Tim
