Since MCJIT works on x86, please don't remove it from the supported
platforms list. One downside of using the macro trick is that the test
names are still printed even when they are disabled. It sounds like you
need to modify the macro to also check for the target triple as well...

There isn't anything in MCJIT as far as I know that prevents cross
compilation. That said, the SectionMemoryManager that's used by the unit
tests doesn't support remote execution. However, the RemoteMemoryManager
has been improving lately; it could foreseeably be used to add remote
execution support to the tests.
