Why? The host build's cmake files should not at all be used or
influence how
they're used. All we need is the path to the tools, which are all in the
libexec of that build.
You got a point there. This needs more investigation, but I think
QTBUG-85084 is related.
I've experimented with this and came up with
https://codereview.qt-project.org/c/qt/qtbase/+/370958
which allows to build qtbase dev (6.3.0) against a host Qt 6.1.2.
Note that we don't have any version restriction if we go that route.
