I suppose it would.  The problem here is that the libgcc1 DLL has 
different names on each arch due to the added -seh on x86_64.

I'm afraid that under cross-compiling scenarios, dependency detection is 
at best a guide; manual editing of the setup.hint requires: will often 
be necessary.

[PKG_]REQUIRES only adds to the automatic detection, it doesn't take 
anything away from it.
