If Xft depends on XRender (has to be linked with it), of course, you to
crosscompile it too.

A more general thought - I would probably (think of)/(try to) a chroot'ed
environment for cross-compilation, so you'll have precise control which libraries
are seen and which are not by linker.

Probably, even better, I'd create a virtual ARM machine using QEMU, install
Linux on it and get rid of cross-compilation altogether.
