As Norbert already wrote, the best course of action is probably to get 
to a state where building with a read-only source tree works (i.e., 
where all the build artefacts are generated to some distinct place). 
Then, differentiating on platform and .pro/non-pro can go away 
completely (why stop at "unx" vs. "win," anyway?), and only some 
differentiation based on "build" and "host" is needed for cross compilation.
