it seems to me that --with-headers (and related options) can be
useful in any case where build != target
there are three possibilities
  - building a cross tool, like linux/linux/solaris
  - cross-building a native tool, like linux/solaris/solaris
  - cross-building a cross tool, like linux/cygwin/solaris

maybe it would be helpful to put the word 'target' in the option?
  --with-target-sysroot
  --with-host-sysroot
etc.
