Answer»

Right answer is (b) Canadian Cross

For explanation I would say: The Canadian Cross is a technique for BUILDING cross compilers for other machines. Given three machines X, Y, and Z, one uses MACHINE X (e.g. running Windows XP on an IA-32 PROCESSOR) to build a cross COMPILER that runs on machine Y (e.g. running Mac OS X on an x86-64 processor) to create executables for machine Z.
