The way the flag is added is not compatible with cross compilation configurations where the "build JDK" is built on the fly. In such a configuration, we are setting up two distinct toolchains, the TARGET (basically the regular one, with no variable prefixes) and the BUILD (an extra toolchain used to compile for the build platform, variables have the prefix "BUILD_").

Looks good to me. Thanks for the fix @erikj79
