You'll also need the patch from #421359, otherwise the new APEX is not
written to flash.

The major issue is that the APEX maintainer doesn't respond to these
bugs. Another minor issue is that it would be nice to get more
feedback on the patch in #421359.

cross-compile would be fine. I just don't have a cross-compiler for
armel. Native or qemu would work too, but are slower.
