+* Thu Jun 13 2013 Kyle McMartin <kyle@redhat.com>
+- Introduce infrastructure for cross-compiling Fedora kernels. Intended to
+  assist building for secondary architectures like ppc64, s390x, and arm.
+  To use, create an .src.rpm using "fedpkg srpm" and then run
+  "rpmbuild --rebuild --with cross --without perf --without tools \
+    kernel*.src.rpm" to cross compile. This requires binutils and gcc
+  packages named like %_target_cpu, which all but powerpc64 currently provides
+  in rawhide/F-19. Can't (currently) cross compile perf or kernel-tools, since
+  libc is missing from the cross environment.

 - arm-export-read_current_timer.patch: drop upstream patch
   (results in duplicate exports)
