Translations:Changing the CHOST variable/4/en

There are certain situations where changing the CHOST variable is inevitable. Most of them should never be necessary in normal operations (e.g., because they involve bootstrapping for a new architecture). Sometimes however... As an example, switching profile may involve a change of CHOST, e.g., in the case of the upgrade of MIPS machines from the 17.0 to the 23.0 profiles, because we are adapting our settings to common standards.
