Support cross compilation by compiling "zic" with a native compiler.
This relies on the output of zic being platform independent, but that is
currently the case.

If you are cross-compiling<indexterm><primary>cross
compilation</primary></indexterm> (compiling on one architecture
with the intent to run on a different architecture), special care
needs to be taken. First of all, specify the host architecture
(the architecture PostgreSQL will run on) using the option
<option>--host</option>. The variables <envar>CC</>,
<envar>CFLAGS</>, etc. should refer to the build tools for the
host architecture. During the build process, the time-zone
database for PostgreSQL is created and a special tool to do that
is compiled and run during the build process. This tool needs to
be compiled using a native compiler. Specify this compiler using
the variable <envar>CC_FOR_BUILD</envar>. Cross compilation
requires expert knowledge and the support for this process in the
PostgreSQL tree should be considered somewhat experimental.
