Subject: Can the autotools handle cross-compilation?

Here is my problem:
Currently, to build kdenox (the embedded version of konqueror), an 
installed version of kdelibs is required. 
It is needed, I think, only for the dcopidl - dcopidl2cpp programs.

I'd like to bundle the needed dcop files in the tarball. 
That's easy enough to do. The problem is that kdenox main use is on 
embedded systems, and it is cross-compiled. So I have to build the dcop 
programs with the native compiler of the machine used for the build, and
the rest with the cross compiler. 
Is there some autotools macro that can be used to specify what compiler to 
use for each? Given that configure has --build and --host parameters, this 
should be doable. Can some autotools expert out there help me?

Thanks,
Luciano
