Is it possible to build the module without needing to provide the python interpreter?

I am cross-compiling and I have the ARM toolchain's Python-Headers & Libraries, but not the interpreter.
Why does pybind11 need the interpreter when building? I am not calling any python code from C++.

I am using Pybind11 2.90, because I need Python2.7 support.
I would really appreciate your help!! :)))

ps: I desperately pulled the interpreter executable from the ARM device. I guess it does not make much sense.
It would make more sense if I would understand what the interpreter is needed for during the build process. :)

Ok, it seems that ctypes needs _ctypes (underscore prefix), which is part of the interpreter binary.
