Modifying the respective Makefile to use HOSTCC and removing CFLAGS
(because of --sysroot) fixes the issue. I also just saw Bug 323
https://bugs.busybox.net/show_bug.cgi?id=323

It uses different variables but I can confirm that it works, too.

Note that Mesa also needs a g++ in the target(see attached patch).
We have no way of defining dependencies like the missing mkfontscale on
the host, right? Should probably be added..

Thanks for the prompt help, I'll speak up if I find more issues.
