I looked a bit more, and it mostly seems to be changes to this file:

https://android.googlesource.com/platform/build/soong/+/master/ui/build/paths/config.go

And this directory:

https://android.googlesource.com/platform/prebuilts/build-tools/+/master/toybox/linux-x86

Except... the directory is x86-only? You currently only support building on an
x86 host, not on arm?
