Yes. If you try to cross compile things *using* Nix, for example on NixOS.
You probably just used the default unslung build process. I'm talking
about building packages in a pure Nixified environment, where the cross
compiler is built with Nix, the C library is cross compiled with Nix,
applications are cross compiled with Nix, and so on.
