+How to cross-compile modular Xorg on NetBSD
+-------------------------------------------
+
+(a) You have to have modular Xorg and the build tools used by it
+installed in /usr/pkg (or whatever prefix you want to use for the
+cross-compiled packages).
+
+(b) You have run buil.sh release for the desired platform. Remember
+where you wrote the tools to and where the destdir is.
+
+(c) You have to add the following options to your mk.conf:
+USE_DESTDIR=		full    
+DEPENDS_TARGET=		package-install
+
+X11_TYPE =		modular 
+
+CROSS_DESTDIR=		/where/ever/above/destdir/is
+TOOLDIR=		/where/ever/above/tools/are 
+USE_CROSS_COMPILE=	yes
+
+The first two activate DESTDIR support, which is required for the
+cross-compile infrastructure. The third option tells it to use modular
+Xorg. oThe other three options specify the correct path names and
+activate cross compiling.
+
+(c) Just run make package e.g. in meta-pkgs/modular-xorg-apps now.
