Distributors have environments set up so that they can cross-compile
programs to targets. You can wonder why they do this, but that is the
way they do it.
Cross-compiling Axiom here, does not mean that the Axiom compilers or
interpreter is itself a cross-compiler (to get there, you would have
compiled Axiom as a Canadian cross which is pointless in this specific
case). The cross-compiled tools or programs just act natively when
run on the host. I suspect that is the part Bill is confused about.
