For the record, the any/local-rtlddir-cross.diff patch has been
introduced to avoid dealing with this kind of issue in
armhf/powerpc-cross-toolchain-base, which later became
cross-toolchain-base.

It caused issues with the testsuite as reported in #985617 or reported
upstream by Ubuntu there:
https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25652
