My problem arises when cross building python support packages e.g pycairo.
When the python extensions are built (using ccompiler.py) the python
environment needs to be set such that the cross toolchain, rather than
the build host toolchain, is used.
I don't want to set the global environment, since this may affect
other parts of the build, but I haven't found how I would set just the
python environment.
See e.g. my PPA
https://launchpad.net/~peter-pearse/+archive/cross-source packages
pycairo and jack
Perhaps there is some CDBS mechanism I have not found?
