We could generate x86, x86_64, and PPC hosted toolchains for

Cross-compilation of packages is never going to work reliably.
True.
Too many
people make the mistake of using autocrap, and don't handle
cross-compilation at all well.
You are dead wrong. auto*tools do handle cross compilation very well.
Many auto* based configuration work with cross-compilers OTB.
Also, ready availability of cross toolchains would greatly increase the
ease of testing packages for other architectures. So over time packages
might improve towards being buildable for different architectures.
