[question] Cross-compilation with SCons and tool_requires

I am trying to setup cross-compilation with SCons where Conan provides the cross-compiler as a binary package. So, I have created a cross-compiler package which works fine with CMAKE when I add it as tool_requires and set the correct host profile.

For SCons however I am not sure how I can add the location of the cross-compiler binaries to the build environment. The SConscript_conan file does not contain anything regarding the packages installed via tool_requires. I would expect that they show up, so that I can add the BINPATH to the SCons environment. I can't add the pakckage as normal requires because then the build and host environments don't match anymore.

Does anyone have a suggestion what the recommend approach is for cross-compilation with SCons?
