Description

It would be useful to maintain a list for cross-compilers (maybe other categories too) and use that list in all the hooks that apply to them. Now, whenever we have a new exception, we need to add it to many different lists

Contributor guide

Research direction
Define a list of cross compiler identifiers in a configuration file (e.g., cross compilers = ['gcc arm', 'clang', ...]). Then modify each hook that currently has hard coded cross compiler checks to import and use this list instead. Ensure the list is easily extendable and documented.
