Tho sometimes this can be fixed by building those tools twice:
- once for the target
- once for the host (to run it during the build).

E.g. I think we could build almost all of Emacs's files via
cross-compilation, the only exception being the dumped Emacs (i.e. the
.pdmp files): we could build a "host-temacs" which we can use to compile
the .elc files and then a "target-temacs" for the actual
intended target.  But generating the target .pdmp file requires running
the target-temacs.
