Thanks for the report.

I'm sorry but I cannot reproduce this; running "sbuild --host=armhf"
on an amd64 system results in a successful build.

While preparing for the gnustep-multiarch transition I tried to
cross-build the whole GNUstep stack and of course gnustep-gui is a
central part of it.  It hard codes pkg-config in configure.ac but
somehow still builds successfully, AFAICT.  There are no other issues
and I just retried a cross build to confirm (using git master but
there are no changes there that could affect cross building).
