I'd just like to say... one of the few examples you had in favor of
build != host testing was crosstool. Whoever gave you that example was
mistaken; crosstest.sh only supports host != target, so people are
probably -not- testing gcc with build != host.
I still think this requirement is a bad idea, but it's your call.
