Internally we can just
if $cross_compiling = yes; then
AC_MSG_WARN()
fi
I agree some AC_CROSS_COMPILING_IFELSE would be nice.

I don't know, I'm trying to keep the API as small as possible.

That's what the other tests do. But I never cross compiled, so I just
don't know what the best behavior would be.
