This happens because the buildjdk is x86 but the target jdk is aarch64. Reusing artifacts is not correct in this scenario. The fix is to ensure that the required targets are built unconditionally for Windows AArch64.

lines  114-116 please check the indentation I think this has to be adjusted by one space.
I am wondering how it works/worked for other **cross builds** then windows cross, the problem you describe sounds like it should be seen for cross builds on other platforms too?
