I think the problem is that I can't reasonably know that you (or others) are using the gcc-cross recipe for non-linux purposes. I've never seen patches related to that or any other sign of it. I now know this so I will try to account for it and the multitude of other things I try and account for in future. You have implied this is easily avoidable and it is, *if* you know what it is you're trying to avoid (and can remember all of them).
