   use `craneLib.cleanCargoSource ./.` directly (if the default source cleaning
   is desired) or `craneLib.path ./.` (if not).
+* `overrideToolchain` has been updated to better handle cross-compilation
+  splicing for a customized toolchain. This means that `overrideToolchain`
+  should now be called with a function which constructs said toolchain for any

 ### Fixed
 * The cross compilation example also hows how to set the `TARGET_CC` environment

-`overrideToolchain :: drv -> set`

+`overrideToolchain :: drv -> set` (deprecated)
 
 A convenience method to override and use tools (like `cargo`, `clippy`,
 `rustfmt`, `rustc`, etc.) from one specific toolchain. The input should be a
 single derivation which contains all the tools as binaries. For example, this
 can be the output of `oxalica/rust-overlay`.
 
+Note that in order to best support cross compilation, `overrideToolchain` should
+be provided a function (whose argument is a cross-compilation aware version of
+`pkgs`) which constructs the toolchain:
+
 ```nix
-craneLib.overrideToolchain myCustomToolchain
+craneLib.overrideToolchain (p: myCustomToolchainForPkgs p)
