No, OS_TARGET=android should be specified, although I believe that
actually a regular linux compiler (i.e. compiled with OS_TARGET=linux)
should work too as long as the rtl is compiled with -Cfvsse3 too.

E.g. 

make crossinstall OS_TARGET=android CPU_TARGET=x86 CROSSOPT="-Cfsse3"
CROSSBINDIR=%whatever%
BINUTILSPREFIX=i686-linux-androideabi-

I saw that I forgot to add and commit the rtl/android/i386 directory. As
temporary measure just copy over the files from rtl/linux/i386... :)

I will fix that.

The x86 android compiler support mostly concerns registration of the
target in the compiler and tools, and some modifications to default
libraries and fpc.cfg (the latter which I didn't really get around).
