"host" and "target" are unclear to me here. For example, grub-emu would
be compiled for the "host", but grub itself would be for the "target"?
When would you ever want to build things differently like that?

Or is this just so you can specify "host" build flags which are totally
separate from "target" flags (since the target is built as a
freestanding executable)?

In that case, in Vesa's patch, CFLAGS shouldn't need any of these,
right? -fno-builtin -mrtd -mregparm=3
