Why would a cross debugger make this test irrelevant?  If you are debugging
your ARM board from your x86 PC, you can still set environment variables
for new processes that are spawned by gdbserver.  I have the feeling that
you are confused by the meanings of the various terms (native/remote/
extended-remote/cross/etc), which is understandable because these terms
have different meanings depending on the context.  Can you expand on why
you think this is wrong, and maybe we can find where the possible confusion
comes from?
