In the long term I think this patch is a good idea, and I think we
already have a similar change on the toolchain-desuck branch. 

In the short term, this patch is probably harmless since I think the
other bits in cross.bbclass will prevent any packages from actually
being generated (since the install paths won't match against any FILES).
If you did get packages out then they would be somewhat misleadingly
named and this would probably be a bad thing.

I think you might as well go ahead and check this in, if you haven't
already, and if any issues do crop up we can deal with them at that
time.  I would like to try to get the other toolchain-packaging changes
merged as well at some point soonish.
