Yes, ther eis. Under normal circumstances, you do NOT want to have
such settings, as you then cannot compile any code for your native
system any more.

Consider this is as an efficient, but somewhat dirty trick to build
many packages that are not friendly to cross-environments with as
little effort as possible.


Best regards,

There are two ways to write error-free programs. Only the  third  one
works.
