The tricky part would probably be to make those cross compilers work with 
node-gyp (the Node.js build tool for native extensions). I haven't heard of 
anyone doing that. Also, I guess that Electron itself would have to be 
compiled with the same compiler toolchain in that case. Node.js extensions 
like node-sword-interface are shared object files that are loaded 
dynamically (sort of like plugins) by the Electron process during runtime.

Best regards,
Tobias
