The script is publicly available as https://github.com/mikpe/buildcross.git. Usage for actively maintained toolchains is pretty easy. For example, to build a cross to sparc64-unknown-linux-gnu you just run buildcross -jN sparc64 and it will leave the toolchain in cross-sparc64. (Other bits will land in downloads/, sources/, and host-tools/.) Many older targets require older gcc versions to even build, and may not work well as 64-bit builds, so for those the operator needs to provide overrides via the environment, see e.g. the comments for the "a29k" target. None of that is automated, sorry. If you're only interested in linux-gnu toolchains for actively maintained targets there's a build-many-glibcs.py script in glibc that should be a better fit. /Mikael
