Well after many failures thanks to something in my Gentoo host's cross 
compilers I finally managed some success using an Ubuntu chroot!
It needs testing obviously, because as mentioned I still run 0.25 and 
can only test that the exe starts up.

(no plugins, see below)

The plugins appear to have been built (I used the packaging script) but 
of course I have no way of testing them.

Please let me know how it goes!

As for the threads issue, adding --enable-pthreads to myth's configure 
makes it work, so seems to be an error message fail.
I still need to do a bit of work before I can automate it like the other 
builds.
