Neither gtk-doc nor gobject-introspection really work when cross-building, let's just disable them when cmake says we're cross-compiling.

Note that in the gtk-doc case, at the moment it is not possible to avoid it even by setting ENABLE_GTKDOC=OFF, since even then it is run as a syntax-check: https://trac.webkit.org/browser/trunk/Source/PlatformGTK.cmake#L35

Lets move this down to after the USE_LIBHYPHEN check near line 429. It's a bit strange to do this in the middle of the definition of all the options.

Indeed, I wasn't sure if it was better to keep the override close to the original definition or move it in a more appropriate place.

I've updated the patch and took the liberty of listing you as reviewer in the ChangeLog (is it correct to do so?).

It usually isn't necessary. The tools typically fill it in by reading who attaches the r+ in Bugzilla.
