FWIW, I agree that build fixes for platforms we already support are not a new feature. I am not happy about the amount of changes, and I hope that no such big changes will come until final now...

I don't think we have ever supported cross-compiling officially (which is different from supporting a given platform, e.g. ARM). But fair enough.
