The only place the buildsystem will look for a suitable cross compiler
is /opt/netsurf/<host-triplet>. If you have installed your cross
compiler somewhere else, it won't find it automatically, so you will
have to tell it where to look manually.

You can do this, thus:

make TARGET=amigaos3 CC=m68k-amigaos-gcc LD=m68k-amigaos-gcc

Makefile.top is toolchain agnostic. All tooling is set up by
Makefile.tools.
