This was fixed with r0-93833 where we ignore now -march=native and/or
-mtune=native if not compiled with GCC, There were more fixes later on what
macro gets tested too.

But I still say any kind of crosses are not allowed to be built with a non GCC.

It isn't really about cross compiler. It is about the compiler which is used to
compile gcc. Since we don't know if the compiler can handle cpuid asm statement
like gcc, when we are building gcc, there is no way for us to call cpuid.

BTW, it is quite rare not to use gcc to build gcc, considering bootstrap.
The only case I can think of is when we use another compiler to build
canadian cross compiler where target == host and host != build.

I always thought cross compilers needed GCC to compile anyways so I don't see
why this is a bug?
If you mean while bootstrapping and someone uses --with-tune=native, I still
don't see why this is an issue as that would be a bug with their use of options
while configuring.

Can you better explain what exactly what is wrong with this instead of just
saying it is broken?
