The result from this is a cross-toolchain built totally from virgin
sources
That's a false statement. Since you can't reproduce this without first having the system's headers, it's not from virgin sources.
In any case, your procedure is no easier than running a properly written (real) virgin source build procedure, and is indeed impossible for platforms where there are no headers already built to steal.
I should mention that I tried using a procedure like yours for a while, but it bit me on the behind when I tried to move up to a newer compiler. I gave up on trying to keep it working, and have shifted my efforts to a totally reproducible clean build from virgin gnu sources. Once I have my scripts finished, it'll be very, very easy to create a truly clean cross toolchain. Even you might agree it'll be easier than the procedure you have so often and vigorously proposed.
