There should be a howto linked from http://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch
but there isn't currently. I'm sure there is one somewhere but I just
failed to find it. 
This is one of the clearest docs currently:
http://suihkulokki.blogspot.co.uk/2012/04/cross-compiling-with-multiarch-congrats.html

The details are also on the linaro wiki here:
https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/DevPlatform/CrossCompile/UsingMultiArch

Linked from the index page:
https://wiki.linaro.org/Platform/DevPlatform/CrossCompile/CrossBuilding
(which could do with an update)


Wookey
