I don't know about the win32 builds... Building from source on linux
the man page is available and current.

I thought this would be what you wanted, but it's definitely not
current:
http://www.gnupg.org/documentation/manpage.en.html
It's linked from the main documentation page.
FWIW, here are the sections on cross-certify from the 1.4.3 manual:
--edit-key name
Present a menu which enables you to do all key related tasks:
[...]
cross-certify
Add cross-certification signatures to signing
subkeys that may not currently have them.
Cross-certification signatures protect against a
subtle attack against signing subkeys. See
--require-cross-certification.
[...]
--require-cross-certification
--no-require-certification
When verifying a signature made from a subkey, ensure that
the cross certification "back signature" on the subkey is
present and valid. This protects against a subtle attack
against subkeys that can sign. Currently defaults to
--no-require- cross-certification, but will be changed
to --require-cross-certification in the future.

There is no pleasure in having nothing to do; the fun is in having
lots to do and not doing it.
