I have fixed cross-compilation for conky in nixpkgs (to be reviewed/merged), but in the process I encountered a situation where wayland was found, but wayland-scanner was not. That allowed the configuration process to continue with just a warning, but then the build process failed when the wayland-scanner executable was not available. In my opinion it would be nicer to fail earlier, with a clear error message.
Tested locally as a patch applied to the nixpkgs derivation.
