Aaah! Thanks, indeed, I completely missed your point!
What would you suggest? Fail when lib/cpp is chosen but
cross_compiling? Look for $target dependent tools?
In fact, I guess that cross-compilers are good compilers, so it is
surprising that they are rejected with -E. Do you think our test is
bad?
I'm really lost. What is the best thing you think we should do?
