It is not about cross compilation. Not being able to check out sources
on a common used operating system makes little to no sense at all.

An example: I never ever run Linux, but I do have the Git tree of the
Linux kernel on one of my systems, so I can do some comparisons between
certain FreeBSD and Linux features. This doesn't mean I want to cross
compile Linux kernels on my FreeBSD system.

I think it would be very useful if I could at least read FreeBSD sources
on my laptop, instead of SSH'ing to my development box at home.
