I think it's annoying that you then have to type  
OVERRIDEVERSIONCHECK=1 whenever you build a cross-compiler. Even more:  
it will suggest that building a cross-compiler should also be done  
starting with the latest release, while in fact it they should be  
built using a native compiler built from the same svn version.  
Therefore I don't think think that we can check anything in case of  
cross-building.
