FWIW qemu firmware pacakges build with cross-gcc: ipxe, seabios, SLOF,
openbios. We want to build for the target architecture but ship as noarch,
since the roms aren't used by the host machine but only used by qemu-system-*,
which should run on any host arch.

That doesn't impact whether cross-gcc should be updated, just pointing it out
for completeness.
