fossil fails to cross build from source for arm64, because arm64
includes -mbranch-protection=standard in CFLAGS and fossil passes this
flag for building native tools. The amd64 gcc does not like that. The
upstream makefiles seed BCCFLAGS from the detected host's CFLAGS while
they should not. I suggest overriding BCCFLAGS in debian/rules. Please
consider applying the attached patch.
