Yes, Travis should use the cross-compiler packages from Debian. We have
cross-compilers for all targets in Debian except for ia64 as it's a bit
more complicated to build a cross-compiler there due to the fact that
gcc needs libunwind there.

I will look into this, at least for all other targets, the cross-compilers
can easily be installed with "apt install gcc-$GCCVER-$ARCH-linux-gnu",
so if Travis uses Docker here, it will be trivial to fix.

The cross-compilers from kernel.org are bare-bone and can't be used to build
anything but the kernel and a few other utilities due to missing std libraries.
