If I set them in /etc/make.conf it works in a chroot as well.

But shouldn't a crosstool make have the MACHINE and MACHINE_ARCH
of the target regardless of where it is running?
clang built by native-xtools has Target set to the target arch.

I can try to prepare and try to upstream a patch for an option
to compile bmake for cross-compilation of same os version but
different archs if it will be useful.

make uses uname(3) for MACHINE and I see UNAME_m affects it.
For MACHINE_ARCH it uses HW_MACHINE_ARCH sysctl(3)
which isn't effected by UNAME_p.
Of course, MACHINE/MACHINE_ARCH can be overriden in
/etc/make.conf after the initial value is set by uname/sysctl.

So I guess I will have to set MACHINE and MACHINE_ARCH
explicitly in make.conf like Poudriere.
