elfutils' test suite uses uname(1) to determine if certain tests can be executed, e.g. it checks for x86_64 to learn whether it can use $CC -m64. Obviously, such checks fall flat if we are compiling from e.g. x86_64 to i686. Instead of skipping known bad tests, just be safe and disable for “executable” cross as well.

elfutils is used in the RTS (rts/Libdw.c), i.e. it will be used on the target platform. Tested via pkgsCross.gnu32.haskellPackages.ghc [1], though NixOS#304605 needs to be cherry-picked for elfutils to build. [1]: nix-shell -E 'with import ./. { crossSystem = "i686-linux"; }; mkShell { nativeBuildInputs = [haskellPackages.ghc ]; }'
