I want to run all the tests on the target system. So I need to build xsd natively, run xsd on all the schemas in tests. But I don't want to compile the C++ files in tests/ natively. Either I want to compile them on the target system, or compile them with a different configuration.

Is there a make target that runs xsd on all the test schemas, but does not run the C++ compiler to build the test driver programs?

Or is there a way to reconfigure the build variables without deleting any object files? I guess I can run the interactive make dialogs and save all the configuration-dynamic.make files for the target, then make disfigure and make again for the host. Run make in xsd. Replace all the configuration-dynamic.make files and run make in tests/.
