I think the problem is that I can't reasonably know that you (or others)
are using the gcc-cross recipe for non-linux purposes. I've never seen
patches related to that or any other sign of it.

I now know this so I will try to account for it and the multitude of
other things I try and account for in future. You have implied this is
easily avoidable and it is, *if* you know what it is you're trying to
avoid (and can remember all of them).

Cheers,
