Often (but not always, cf. rust), when software has files for specific
architectures or operating systems, they will only be compiled if they
match the architecture and operating system the software is compiled
for.  As such, there's a good chance the build will succeed (at least
for Linux, for Hurd, ...) if they are simply deleted.

Greetings,
Maxime.
