Well, it's not that simple. HOST_DIR is for stuff for the host, so a sdl-config
there would point to the host libraries, not the target ones. Also notice that
these scripts gets installed with make install of the packages, so we don't
have direct control over it. And finally don't forget the cross compiler which
also gets installed into STAGING_DIR together with the headers/libs, and people
expect to simply be able to add STAGING_DIR/usr/bin to their path and be good
to go.
