Not quite correct.  world-, kernel-, and crunch- related release.X
targets _do_ respect cross- and build- tools (as defined by Makefile.inc1).
Yes, tools like tar(1), cpio(1), and sed(1) may need to be bootstrapped,
if there are any incompatibilities between currently running ones and
ones rebuild from source.

Again, just to settle this point, old version suffered from about the
same problem -- you were required to run with the _compatible_ kernel.
You can now "make release" with incompatible kernel, because we don't
use any incompatible binaries (probably even targeted for a different
arch!).
