That's possible, however, can cause problems while building GStreamer on the
other platform, if your library doesn't build on that platform.

I've met these problems and currently have very little idea about how to
resolve them.
The mpeg2enc plugin uses mjpegtools, which is written in C++ with inline
asm.
Visual C++ doesn't compile it.
g++ builds it, and even mingw's g++ builds it, but Visual C++ cannot link to
the generated library, as it doesn't understand g++ name mangling scheme.
