Why? Installing the packages takes a few seconds of ghe build time at most. 
Also, I don't see anything obviously superfluous.

The cross tools only install prefixed binaries (aarch64-linux-gcc) - and even 
if something unprefixed did sneak in, we really only ever want to use the 
prefixed ones :). So the end of PATH is definitely correct.
