IOW: dpkg-cross can only support one target per triplet ...

The more generic solution is to use an separate sysroot image
per target (or even per build run) and let the building machinery
compute the pkg config pathes by the current sysroot prefix.

No. What matters is passing the right commands/pathes.
(eg. compiler/linker commands, sysroot prefix, etc, etc).

No idea how dpkg-cross handles it, but Briegel does exactly that.
