No, it appears to be pretty standard.  I took my cue on the sys-root
from the cross-compilers on arm.  My own cross compilers are theirs
plus some patches (which I'm preparing to send their direction next)

No, $(CROSS_COMPILE:-=) only removes the trailing dash.  The resulting
path is /usr/ia64-linux-gnu/sys-root, so the sys-root lives right next
to the rest of the toolchain support:

$ ls /usr/ia64-linux-gnu
bin/  lib/  sys-root/
