The cross-compilation toolchains that use these packages are for have
bitrotted for so long that I don't think anybody still actually uses
them.

per [1], the only use for these was cross-compiling cygwin itself.

Indeed - agreed - looked at my installs and they are from 2014 Windows manifest 2016 libbfd etc. gcc 6.04. I think I'll remove them all.
May be time to obsolete the packages?

So, yes, I think these should be removed.
