I just hit this one too. It’s been discussed previously[0]; as you note,
the problem is that v86d is built even though it’s not used on aarch64.
The patch in [1] works when compiling natively, not sure about cross
compiling.

I tried unsuccessfully to get the solution with let-system[2] to work,
maybe someone better versed in gexps can help?
