I like the idea, and this takes us one step closer to smooth 
cross-compilation, so it must be a good thing.  I didn't review the 
patches in detail though (incidentally I think your most recent patch 
set is missing the new files, CrossCodeGen.hs and DirectCodeGen.hs).

One small request: please could you update the documentation in 
docs/users_guide/utils.xml?

Cheers,
