I asked about cross-compiling inside Red Hat and was told:

: this can only work if you build a cross compile toolchain; it
: doesn't look like he did that. (note we don't ship nor support such a
: thing).

So my guess is there's something wrong with your cross-compilation
setup. What exactly is wrong is beyond my field of expertise ...
you might try asking some gcc-oriented mailing list.
