Which is why I would _not_ recommend cross compiling for the majority of people who want to do compiles on an x86 system. Running Hercules would be a much better choice for them. If people who have been working with Linux for quite a while have problems with it, it's not a good choice for the general systems programmer.

I would assume this to be differences in include files, not the compiler. You need to make sure the cross-compile uses the target versions of all required (system and non-system) include files, and does not fall back to using any host include file. (If any file from /usr/include gets pulled in, this is most likely a bug.) Also, sometimes the configure/make scripts are not 100% cross-compile ready, and make some decisions depending on the host architecture which should really depend on the target ...
