This is a very good question. On the one hand, on certain systems those
environment variables could be necessary for the native GCC to work. On
the other hand, LIBRARY_PATH and CPATH will always cause trouble with
the cross GCC.

So I added CPATH, LIBRARY_PATH and similar variables to the blacklist:
http://hg.savannah.gnu.org/hgweb/mingw-cross-env/rev/df9522d79d42

However, I did _not_ add LD_LIBRARY_PATH, because that shouldn't cause
any trouble.

Please check whether that works for you; in particular, whether it works
for you without having to unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
