You are right. The CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH is used also as base for the 
HINTS paths.

You can use _CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_LOCATION to pass NO_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH to 
the find_program calls:
set(_CMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_LOCATION "" NO_CMAKE_FIND_ROOT_PATH)

This should work but I am not sure if it is a good solution.
