Cross-compiling *very* often produces slightly bogus packages. They are
enough to bootstrap something you can build upon, but you cannot hope
more.

We do have cross-compiling boot strap set up on
https://jenkins.debian.net/view/rebootstrap/
but we don't want to upload the result, since when cross-compiling
there are various ./configure tests that you cannot run (execution-time
results).
