The crosstool package from Dan Kegel did a good job for this. Not sure it's currently maintained though. It was a very useful project, it's a shame if it does not live on. It would be good to have up-to-date and tested compilers for various architectures available on kernel.org, ideally with access to a package that helps building compilers for various architectures.
Thanks,
Mathieu
