[En-Nut-Discussion] Question about following the cross tool chain compilation in Mac osx

[Lucius Fox]

Harald,

Thank you.
When you say it can co-exist, do I need to put a different PREFIX when run
the configure command to make sure it does not over-write what I have ?
If not, what do I need to do to make sure they can co-exist? isn't default
will put that in /usr/local/bin? hence it will overwrite what I have?

Thank you for your help.
