Given that the only native code we have in a cross-build is pmdinfogen,
doing two copies of each cross-build seems overkill, and makes the test
longer than it should be. I suggest that we just do one of the
cross-builds, e.g. the generic armv8 one, for both clang and gcc, and do
the others only once.
