This has already been fixed in the git repo:
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/crosstoolchain/cross-gcc.git/commit/?id=1a40c7fe8ba1b04840acba1fe45
2aeff3d126e32
but that fix seems not to have made it into version 13 in jessie. Not
quite sure what happened there. I think it may have been stalled
waiting for cross-gcc-defaults 0.7 to make it out of NEW, where it's
been for 2 months (and 0.5 for a month before that).

Thanks for the bug report. Not sure this is RC enough to be allowed into jessie.
