This could be interesting. Maybe for the non-natively bootstrapped platforms, we could slightly modify the late stages of minimal-bootstrap such that the final gcc is optionally a cross compiler (build=x86_64, host=target=stdenv.buildPlatform) and minimal-bootstrap.*-static would be cross-compiled with it

@k900:0upti.meK900 The better channel is probably #Nix / NixOS 13:40:23

There's a PoC bootstrap for aarch64-linux now: https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/487398 To make this work, I had to tell gcc-15 that the host is musl-based. But in fact this breaks building glibc on i686 (but not on x86_64). I think this might be the frankenstein gcc problem? So I guess we need a glibc already built before we build a proper gcc targeting glibc
