I second this. 

We[1] have systems with IXP4xx and IXP28x0 processors. Till now we've
used a prebuild toolchain made by Montavista. Recently i was able to
generate a toolchain using crosstool and the armeb-softfloat-linux-gnu
target (gcc3.3.3/glibc2.3.2). Right now i'm setting up the enviroment for 
the crosstest script.

A requirement we have for our IXP4xx systems is uClibc support.
