[fpc-pascal] benefit of "cross" string added to compiler name?

[Thierry Bothorel]

Hi,

I am not comfortable with make and I was looking for why i get for
example "ppcrossarm" if I cross build with a "one line" like

make clean all install CROSSINSTALL=1 .......

and only "pparm" with

make clean all  .......
make install CROSSINSTALL=1 .......

Reading makefile I understood why, now I wonder what is the benefit to
add the "cross" string inside the compiler file name ? ... Is this
really needed?
