Thanks for the links.

They don't want to get -isysroot flags for their toolchain, and
claim that CMake is stupid for trying to add it, and patch it out.
Of course we have good reasons for adding it, and just need to
make it not do so with their toolchain.  In
Modules/Platform/Darwin-GNU.cmake we already try to detect
whether the flag is available.  Without more details I don't know
if we can know why it doesn't work automatically for them.

They just want to bootstrap with Ninja, except on specific
architectures.  Not an upstream concern.

That says "CMake's built-in ELF parser is broken on arm" but
does not say why.  Someone with access to such a platform
would have to investigate further.
