ninja: build stopped: subcommand failed.

*** CMake build failed
Reproducible example code

With a basic installation of Nix, you can reproduce the error with:

nix build -L nixpkgs#pkgsCross.armv7l-hf-multiplatform.python3.pkgs.pybind11
Is this a regression? Put the last known working version here if it is.

I remember I managed to cross compile pybind11 2.x a few months ago.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the armv7l cross-compilation failure in tests/test_cross_module_rtti/bindings.cpp or tests/pybind11_tests.cpp, using the shown Python 3.13 headers and generated build command. Inspect the interaction between the cross compiler, Python.h, and pyport.h's LONG_BIT check. Done means the affected test sources compile successfully for x86_64-linux to armv7l.
