It would. Currently you can use distro cross-toolchains (from Ubuntu, 
and Debian soon if I get my finger out). Which 'just work, but are not as 
cutting-edge as the linaro ones.

I started work on wrapping the linaro binary releases into (fake) debs so that 
they were easy to install with bits in the right place, but it wasn't working 
quite right when I got sidetracked, so that's still a 'would be nice'. 

I still haven't determined to my satisfaction whether the linaro binary (cross) 
toolchains 
can be used for multiarch cross-building by just moving files about/symlinking 
and fiddling with configs
or if in fact a rebuild is necessary. I can think of good reasons why it could 
go either way. Does anyone else know for sure?

Wookey
