That's a good thing in some ways and a bad thing in others. Having it guarantee to fail if you try installing an ARM kernel onto an x86 machine is definitely a good thing. That said, it's not something I've ever accidentally done. However, having a cross-built kernel shared via NFS onto the target machine where you want to 'make install' it and have it pick up the CROSS_COMPILE setting is a bad thing. I'm not sure there's any one right answer with this... so...
