+Skip the host-side shared-module check when cross-compiling from a
+non-Linux host. The check runs the build interpreter with PYTHONPATH
+pointing into the cross-build tree, so importing its own dependencies
+(e.g. math) can dlopen cross-built Linux ELF modules and crash on
+macOS. On Linux hosts the check runs unchanged.
