I find your reasoning convincing and had a look at the patch. The 
patch also looks reasonably sane to me. There is a typo near the end 
("disbaled" instead of "disabled"), which does not influence runtime 
behavior because the variable is only checked for equality with 
"yes".

Moving build logic to binary-forhost.mk gets rid of quite a lot of 
code duplication (the do_for_host_package macro becomes the 
authoritative source), which I consider a Good Thing. Ultimately, it 
is the maintainer's judgement call whether they want it like this or 
would rather change the conditional inclusion logic to have the 
-for-host package build logic reside with the respective language 
addon Makefiles.


Cheers
Timo
