It does not make sense. The cross-compiled lib is compiled on the host
and pkg-config works also for cross-compiling.
How do you think other libraries are linked?
I don't see why REE should be an exception.
It's the same issue with another Marvell SDK: lib_musdk_dir.
The other exceptions (which should be removed) are
armv8_crypto_dir and flexran_sdk.
