Only for the IDE.

I'm working on build modes, build conditionals and build variables for
projects+packages.
One of the goals is to make the LCL a normal package.
When this is achieved, you don't need to use the build lazarus dialog
to cross compile the LCL any longer. You can simply set the
project TargetOS and TargetCPU and the IDE will automatically cross
compile the LCL if needed.
