Cross Compiling
---------------
When you build *ring* for a target that is different than the one you are using
for the build process you need to install the rust tool chain and a C/C++
compiler that can produce binaries for the intended target.
Besides the required dependencies you need to set the environment variables
`TARGET_CC` and `TARGET_AR` to the full path of the cross-compiler and the
cross-archiver respectively.
