Host tools are used _once_ during the build to produce source files for the
target.  If the binary doesn't require nonstandard calls like strl*, there's
no reason to use them at all.  Obviously it worked before the change, so
just switch it back.

Host tools should be as close to ANSI/POSIX in the default case as possible,
without resorting to autoconf.
