How to include "libbfd" support in cross-gcc setup?

- Subject: How to include "libbfd" support in cross-gcc setup?
I just found that I have to support some software using "libbfd" in my
gcc cross compilation setup. On my older installations I don't have a
libbfd, so I'm rebuilding the cross compiler so that it may be provided...
But how exactly is this supposed to be done? I mean, it seems to me that
I somehow have to build this lib in a separate step. I libbfd build is
done already, of course, but as far as I can understand, this will
provide binaries suitable for link into the cross compiler and related
tools, as opposed to link into cross-compiled applications (which is
what I want.)
I suppose one way of doing it is to add another build step that starts
with something like
mkdir build-bfd; cd build-bfd
../binutils-*/bfd/configure --target=${cross_target}
--host=${cross_target} --prefix=${sysroot}
And I'm actually testing this right now. But is this the "correct" way?
Or the best way? Is anyone else doing anything like this? How?
