I believe the root_fs bundles are intended to be root filesystems for
target devices, so everything in there would be native target
exectuables linked against a target uClibc.  The gcc inside there is
not a cross compiler:

  $ file arm-linux-uclibc-gcc
  arm-linux-uclibc-gcc: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, ARM, version 1 (ARM),
  for GNU/Linux 2.0.0, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped

  $ readelf --program-headers arm-linux-uclibc-gcc
  ...
  INTERP         0x0000f4 0x000080f4 0x000080f4 0x00014 0x00014 R   0x1
      [Requesting program interpreter: /lib/ld-uClibc.so.0]
