Will combine.

I've explained in commit msg. The logic is to have as much as close options
to have smiliar binaries. As those options are used before for hosts and kinda
cross builds - better follow same way.

They are common but split is needed to expose it at least. Also host for
different arches can have some own opts already used that shouldn't be present
for cross, better not mix it for safety.
