Cross compiling on unix is confusing because the compiler sucks. |

Cross-building stuff is just plain confusing. |

All you need to do is build a cross compiler for the ARM9 target the |
| 20 |
same way you did before. The width of the host where you're building |
| 21 |
things doesn't matter (if it does, that's a bug in gcc or binutils). |

I've had excellent results using the crosstool-ng makefile: |

Crosstool is used by a lot of embedded developers. If there were |
| 28 |
problems building an ARM comiler on an AMD64 host, Yann Morin et al. |
| 29 |
are your best bet for a solution. You may want to take a look at the |
| 30 |
crossgcc mailing list: |

From a brief search of the mailing list, it appears that building an |
| 36 |
ARM compiler on an AMD64 machines works just fine. |
| 37 |
|
| 38 |
or, |
| 39 |
|
| 40 |
It's quite likely that you can install IA32 libraries on your AMD64 |
| 41 |
host OS and then use the exact same compiler executable you used |
| 42 |
before. |

You really don't want to do that. It's rather tricky, and it |
| 48 |
shouldn't be required. |

Just use the arm-linux-gcc compiler and you should be fine regardless |
| 54 |
of the width of the host on which you built the arm-linux-gcc |
| 55 |
compiler. |
