I don't have a problem with needing a cross-compiler, but I don't want to write one. I don't have to write my own if I use Rust. Or D, or C. But I can't find such a thing for ATS for example. So just being a language which has semantics to support this is not sufficient to be declared a language "which can do this". I would also need to be able to download a toolchain which can do this.

Ok, but that is a matter of availability of implementations, not a language feature.
