Because it doesn't always work.

I run 64-bit FPC under Linux. I have cross-compiled 32-bit Linux and 32-bit
Windows executables. The compilation went fine (no errors), but the
executables were not runnable on the 32-bit platforms. In the end I had to
setup 32-bit VirtualBox sessions with 32-bit FPC compilers to get actual
working executables.

No idea why the cross-compiling created corrupted executables.
