This is only true for those bugs that already show up with exitsing testcases. New bugs won't get caught by this. However... If not only a gcc for the local system is built, but also a full canadian cross, it's possible that at least some extra-bugs show (in the form of an ICE.) Eg. I get that often enough for the vax-linux-uclibc target...
