i dont think there is any documentation on this. basically, if you want to
compile code for any port/arch, it has to have headers that implicitly include
other headers exactly like a port drepper builds for (so like x86/x86_64).
he's made it clear multiple times on this list when other arches randomly fail
because x86/x86_64 pull in a bunch of standard headers at random places while
other ports do not.
