clfs-embedded:
branches: master; (abradfa) 2017.04-fixes  .
cross-tools/binutils has ~disconnected text 'When used with --host [...]' :
====
http://clfs.org/view/clfs-embedded/x86/cross-tools/binutils.html
https://github.com/bradfa/clfs-embedded/blob/2017.04-fixes/BOOK/cross-tools/common/binutils.xml
==
 --target=${CLFS_TARGET}

    When used with --host, this creates a cross-architecture executable
    that creates files for ${CLFS_TARGET} but runs on the host system.
====

The "When used with --host" text seems to be a bit ~disconnected:
for, the configure command does not include a(n explicit)
'--host=...' parameter; and '--host' does not appear anywhere else on
the page.

As such, the page can seem a little confusing/hand-waving to a newer
reader: the text could do with being tightened-up a bit.


Further, is it intentional to omit explicit '--host=' cfg opt here?
